It's National Cybersecurity Awareness Month
It's National Cybersecurity Awareness Month! You knew this already, right? And of course, security awareness training for employees is a requirement of NIST SP 800-171. Are you ready?
If you are looking for some easy tips to share with employees, feel free to mine the archives of my Cyber Security News & Tips weekly newsletter. And I'd be happy to arrange some in-person or virtual training for you, as well!
And CISA has developed some resources to raise awareness and assist in employee training. You will probably recognize their "Four Easy Ways to Stay Safe Online" -- read and share!
800-171r3, DFARS 7012 and CMMC 2.1 – Where are we now?
That’s a pretty big question, eh? That’s the topic of my talk at the joint ItenWired/AFCEA TechNet conference next month, and I gave a brief overview in my last CMMC Update. I'll also be doing a virtual workshop on the topic on November 8.
Remember, you can read past editions of this newsletter on our website, along with tons more information under the CMMC and Resources tabs. Feel free to share this update!
Sincerely,
Glenda R. Snodgrass, CCP/CCA
