Join ATARC's Continual Authorization to Operate (#cATO) Working Group! 💡 Cybersecurity is more crucial than ever in today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, but traditional ATO processes are struggling to keep pace with growing external security demands, frequent tech updates, and increasing #cyber threats. The RMF/ATO process is simply too slow, hindering agility in implementing security measures and #IT modernization. Continuous ATO offers a solution by streamlining timelines and reducing the effort required to counter #cybersecurity threats, enabling more frequent application and security updates that enhance both modernization and security efforts! If you have any questions or interest in joining the group, please reach out to Elizabeth Wyckoff at ewyckoff@atarc.org.
