CMMC 2.0 Best Practices Series: Role Based Cyber Awareness Training
In 2021, the Department of Defense announced a new strategic effort to provide enhanced cyber security efforts for their building projects going forward. The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) will ensure accountability for companies to implement cybersecurity standards in order to protect sensitive data during the design, build and operations of DoD facilities.
Recently, the DoD has simplified and revised the CMMC to make it more streamlined and faster in what they are calling, “CMMC 2.0”. The new version helps to cut the red tape for small and medium sized businesses, sets priorities for protecting information and updates the requirements to address the evolving cyber threats and best practices.
Through research grants by the John R. Gentille Foundation and Electri Foundation, a video series has been produced by MCAA’s Chief Security Fanatic, Nick Espinosa to provide an update on the process.
