The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) In a Nut Shell

[@fmayer1507]

Very good and clear video that gets at the background that is needed to understand why the program exists and the all important mission assurance case for it.

Thanks for the feedback, Francis!

Just to save people some time, because nobody ever says it in simple terms. CMMC is a certification that shows your level of compliance with NIST.

Great presentation, Sean. I think it was the weapons company, WKRP, that pushed the limits with their turkey bomber. 😄

Hahaha, With God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!

This is super cool stuff, it pains me to know that this is very much an American security framework and doesn't apply to Canadians. Wishing we had a government standard I could guide our clients towards, for now I think CIS controls is our best option. Ultimately these frameworks are accomplishing similar goals so I still feel a lot of this information is still relevant.

Is a security clearance necessary to make good use of this certification?

[@AgileITcom]

No, CMMC is specifically meant to protect Controlled Unclassified Information. Classified information is a whole other ball game.
