Contractors in DoD supply chains are required to have adequate information security measures in place. For those handling technical information, these measures currently include NIST SP 800-171 compliance. Beginning in 2020, a new, auditable, requirement called the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is being introduced. CMMC applies to all companies and subcontractors with defense contracts – even those not handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

This webinar is sponsored by the Alaska Procurement Technical Assistance Center (AK PTAC) and the Alaska Manufacturing Extension Partnership (AK MEP). Two presenters on this 1-hour webinar will be Scott Dawson, Core Business Solutions, and Zane Patalive, Real IT Care. You will learn:

• which Level of maturity will most likely apply to your company,
• key requirements for Levels 1 & 3,
• some considerations for costs of CMMC certification, and
• some practical steps and resources to help you get started.

The CMMC is not optional – going forward, the government will require all government contractors to obtain their CMMC. This is a great opportunity to help you get started!

The webinar access information will be sent to you the day before the event.
