Your supplier cybersecurity qualification survey meticulously covers every scenario to minimize the risk of exposure to potential threats. That's seriously impressive, but how can you be sure if your supplier walks the talk? The recent #crowdstrike incident is a stark reminder of the power of verification. Checking and verifying your supplier's claims can significantly impact your business's success. Consider this: If your supplier claims compliance with frameworks like #GLBA or #CMMC1 instead of being certified in #CMMC2 or #ISO, there's no foolproof way to gauge how well their cybersecurity posture truly is - until something goes wrong. Operating in the #CMMC space? It's essential to recognize that you are responsible for vetting your supplier's cybersecurity posture. Even if they are at fault, authorities will hold you accountable. It's a weighty responsibility that you simply can't afford to ignore. Our suggestion? Make it mandatory for your #suppliers to undergo annual assessments by a third-party assessor to verify that their cyber posture is what they've claimed it to be. Need a second look at your supplier cybersecurity requirements and monitoring practices?

Husband: "#Crowdstrike is offering $10 Uber eats gift cards. Me: "Hoax" Wait. Not a hoax. Are they nuts? You can't get fast food for one on Uber eats without spending over $20! Offering $10 is basically a coupon they know you won't use. Don't agree to anything to get the voucher. folks. You may be giving up your right to compensation for about 30% off an Uber food order. Don't fall for it. Link: https://lnkd.in/gvhpRytN #cybersecurity #cmmc #cyberrisk #grc

Hey Kids! Don't forget that now, even your neighbor's dog and your grandmother's knitting club are part of the Federal Supply chain and subject to CMMC rules. It's like a really inclusive party where everyone has to follow the rules, even if they just came because their mom made them, and the party is totally lame. Since the #DoD and the #FAR are keeping things funky and fresh, we decided to join in by updating our CMMC overview resource with the latest and greatest info! Download and share! Share a lot. #manufacturing #construction #greenbusiness #industrial #pcbassembly #pcbs #fabrication #engineering #randd #cmmc #compliance #dfars

When we say "Risk Management, " we are referring to loss prevention and revenue protection. Preventing loss of organizational IP, customer records, employee records, and other sensitive information is crucial. Loss of customer confidence after reported data loss results in 50% of a company's customer base dropping them like a hot potato after a single data loss event.  (You do the sales math for your company; we'll wait) This resource from #NIST is excellent for people who aren't experts and want to get started with cybersecurity risk management to prevent loss and protect revenue. Have questions?  We can help! #risk #cmmc #cybersecurity #compliance #safeguardsrule #glba

Does your cyber liability insurance include "Dependent Network Interruption"?

Present your CMMC posture on cue with confidence! Remember, it's not just a CMMC requirement that your preparation provider can't be your assessor; it's a crucial step in ensuring transparency and integrity. This separation of the three entities—the organization, the CMMC preparation partner, and the assessment partner—unites to provide transparency and integrity assurance that your compliance posture is on-point and conflict-interest-free.  Do you need another CMMC partner? We have both CCPs and CCAs on staff who know the moves! #cmmc #OSC #cybersecurity #DoD

Wowza! With how fast the DoD is moving towards publishing the Final Rule for CMMC, you'd think a cyber war was going on! When do you predict we'll see the final rule?

**BIG DEAL STUFF** Major changes are on the horizon: CMMC requirements will soon apply to the entire Federal Supply Chain, not just the 76,000 businesses serving the DoD supply chain. If your business didn't have a CMMC requirement before, guess what? It probably does now. How are you planning to tackle these new requirements? #CMMC #cybersecurity #FederalSupplyChain #compliance #DOD #DIB #DOE #VA #DNR #DOA #DOI #DOJ #SBA #FDA #FBI #DOT

Great post by Robert E. Wiley Jr. about how history and sensitive information are colliding in this new age of data protection. How will this play out in the realm of school records, military service information and ancestry research?
