[Originally on FedInsider] The Strategy Behind Meeting CMMC Requirements
Government & industry leaders discuss CMMC & how agencies should approach implementing a comprehensive plan to protect assets.
The purpose of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification is to have in place the security and privacy controls that give information systems greater resilience in the face of a wide range of dangers, including malicious attacks, natural disasters, structural shortcomings, human error, and hostile nation-state surveillance. The catalog of controls is laid out in the National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication 800-53 Rev. 5.
At a strategic level, the effectiveness of these controls depends upon synchronizing data, assets, and users within a Zero Trust Architecture that ensures continuous verification and fortified security – the mantra of “never trust, always verify.”
