The source material for this episode is an ATX Defense whitepaper about secure CMMC enclaves for subcontractors.

CMMC compliance is a major hurdle for subcontractors in the defense industry, but secure enclaves might be the key to a simpler, more affordable solution. In this episode, we explore ATX Defense's CMMC Space, a platform designed to help subcontractors achieve compliance by leveraging the power of secure enclaves.

CMMC Space offers a unique combination of managed security services, a secure virtual environment (the enclave), and collaboration tools. We break down how this approach tackles the complexities of those 110 NIST controls, potentially saving subcontractors significant time and money.

But is it all smooth sailing? We analyze the potential benefits of CMMC Space, such as reduced assessment costs and increased collaboration with primes, while also addressing concerns like reliance on a single provider and the risk of a "checkbox mentality" towards cybersecurity.

Join us as we delve into the world of secure enclaves and explore whether CMMC Space is the game changer subcontractors have been waiting for.

Department of Homeland Security Review of the Summer 2023
Microsoft Exchange Online Intrusion and Google Workspace: A More Secure Alternative

In this episode of the CMMC Space Podcast, we delve into the alarming Microsoft Exchange online intrusion that occurred in the summer of 2023. We explore how the cyber-espionage group Storm-0558, suspected to have ties to China, exploited a stolen 2016 Microsoft signing key to forge tokens and access sensitive emails from top U.S. government officials. The breach went undetected until a custom alert, humorously nicknamed "Big Yellow Taxi," flagged unusual activity.

We discuss the critical findings of the Department of Homeland Security Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) report, which highlights a series of preventable errors and a lack of transparency in Microsoft's corporate culture. The conversation contrasts Microsoft's reactive security approach with Google Workspace's proactive zero-trust architecture, emphasizing how Google's robust security measures, like automatic key rotation and stateful tokens, make it a more secure alternative.

The episode offers practical advice for businesses on evaluating their cloud providers, stressing the importance of transparency, strong encryption, and diligent key management. Whether you're considering switching to Google Workspace or enhancing your current security setup, this episode provides valuable insights into protecting your data in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
