Let’s talk about the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification, or CMMC.   What is it, why should you care about it, and how do you know if it’s going to impact your business?
While the industry has always known that CMMC certification was going to move beyond the Defense Industrial Base (DIB,) we assumed it was going to likely be towards the end of 2021, likely into 2022 and 2023.   But it’s growing at lightning speed, and more and more businesses that previously didn’t think they were going to have to worry about it are suddenly finding themselves in a position of needing to start seriously considering it in order to keep the contracts that they have with a myriad of third parties.   In this episode of The Virtual CISO Podcast, host John Verry, CISO and Managing Partner at Pivot Point Security goes over everything involved in CMMC level 1 certification, and what businesses need to know to get ahead of the game.   John outlines: - What exactly is CMMC? - Why it’s hitting more companies than you may think - How your company can get CMMC ready -The time and resources needed to get CMMC certified   To hear this episode, and many more like it, you can subscribe to The Virtual CISO Podcast here.   If you don’t use Apple Podcasts, you can find all our episodes here.   Listening on a desktop & can’t see the links?
