SUMMARY:How to Prepare a CMMC RFP
DESCRIPTION:Agenda:\nIn the DIB\, many of us follow the DoW’s lead in sending out requests for proposals (RFPs) when selecting vendors. An RFP helps an organization understand all the factors that would go into using a given provider\, including their ability to execute to your organizational standards as well as cost\, scope\, and timeline. CMMC compliance services are no exception.  \nIn this session\, we will explore how to create an RFP to determine which CMMC compliance service provider is best for your business. Daniel and Jacob will share their insights and actionable takeaways. \nYou will leave with a clearer understanding of how to create and refine your RFPs. As a result\, you’ll be able to discover the right provider for your unique needs\, minimizing the risk of choosing the wrong provider.  \nTopics of discussion will include:  \n1. Creating a Scoring Matrix: \n\nTypical scoring criteria\n\nScope \nTimeline \nCost \nPast performance\n\n\nHow to weigh those criteria\n\n2. Sample Requirements: \n\nCMMC compliance level of the provider\nManaged services or in-house \nWhether an enclave or all-in compliance is needed\nUse of FedRAMP-cloud solutions\n\n3. Sample Questions \n\nHow many clients have you led to CMMC certification? \nAre you CMMC certified and at which level? \nIs your staff 100% U.S. persons (Export Control)? \n\n  \nPresenters: \nJacob Horne – Chief Cybersecurity Evangelist\, Summit 7\nDaniel Akridge – Engagement Executive\, Summit 7

SUMMARY:Compliance vs Security: Exploring the Real-World Security Value of CMMC
DESCRIPTION:Presenters:\nJacob Horne – Chief Cybersecurity Evangelist\, Summit 7 \nDetails:\nCatch Jacob Horne’s session from the Cloud Security and Compliance Series (CS2) in Boston. \nCMMC is often criticized for being ineffective against the cyber threats that motivated its creation. But many of those criticisms are just as unfounded as the rhetoric used to promote CMMC as a cybersecurity silver bullet. Like most things\, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. What level of security does a company get when they achieve CMMC certification? This session will explore what you get when CMMC is all you’ve got by comparing CMMC baselines against real-world cyber threat profiles. \nExpert Insight: \nHear from industry expert – Jacob Horne (Summit 7) as he separates fact from fiction in CMMC’s role in cybersecurity. \nEvaluation:\nFind out what security value you’re getting for your time\, money\, and effort when you pursue CMMC certification.

SUMMARY:Protecting CUI with Microsoft 365
DESCRIPTION:Attendees will leave this webinar with an understanding of the cloud environments within the Microsoft 365 stack\, enabling them to understand how to protect and safeguard CUI.\n\nAgenda:\n\nCUI Overview and Identification: Basic and Specified\nMicrosoft 365 GCC & GCC High Overview\nHow To Handle CUI / ITAR data in the Microsoft 365 Cloud\nLive Q & A\n\nAbout This Webinar\n\nFor many organizations handling data on behalf of the government or entities within the United States\, handling sensitive data such as Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is critical; If handled improperly\, CUI presents one of the greatest risks to national security.\n \nIn this webinar\, join Summit 7 experts as we dive into utilizing Microsoft 365 for identifying\, processing\, and handling CUI.  \nWe’ll cover how organizations can practically identify\, scope\, and protect CUI with Microsoft 365. This equips organizations with greater control of their data and better protection of their sensitive information. \n\nMicrosoft has two versions of M365 that are suited for handling sensitive data: Microsoft 365 GCC High and Microsoft 365 GCC.

SUMMARY:The Impacts of Cyber Insurance on The DIB
DESCRIPTION:Overview:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith international cybersecurity crime at an all-time-high\, the DoD supply chain\, or the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) is a major target for cyber warfare because of organizations’ possession of sensitive data such as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)\, Controlled Technical Information (CTI)\, Controlled Defense Information (CDI)\, International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) data\, and more; the lack thereof meeting current cybersecurity mandates such as NIST 800-171 and the upcoming CMMC 2.0 could potentially set the stage for the increase in an international threat landscape. \nIn this webinar\, Robert Metzger (Renowned attorney and industry thought-leader)\, Jacob Horne\, and Scott Edwards discuss the very real threats that contractors are facing as it relates to security standards such as NIST 800-171 and CMMC 2.0 and how organizations should be focusing on strong cybersecurity postures in order to secure or maintain existing cyber insurance policies. The lack of insurance coverage in the event of cyberattacks such as ransomware and other major cyber threats is an issue that organizations that are failing to address federal cyber mandates could be facing sooner rather than later. \nPresenters talk through how technical standards such as NIST 800-171 and those within CMMC 2.0 could set organizations up for success when considering insurance policies to protect their businesses in the Defense Industrial Base.

SUMMARY:Achieving CMMC 2.0 Compliance With The Shared Responsibility Model
DESCRIPTION:About This Webinar\n\n\nIn order to manage DFARS cybersecurity obligations and achieve CMMC 2.0 certification\, aerospace and defense contractors in the Defense Industrial Base must implement and maintain a complex web of NIST 800-171 controls and CMMC practices. \nUnfortunately\, utilizing outsourced managed IT service providers (“MSPs”) creates complications because the responsibilities for security are distributed across internal and external stakeholders. \nThe solution is to utilize a robust shared responsibility matrix that identifies who is responsible for specific security control objectives across your CMMC environment. \nIn this 90 minute session\, Jacob Horne and Scott Edwards will provide contractors with next steps to achieve CMMC 2.0 certification by explaining: \n*What is a Shared Responsibility Model and why is it required for CMMC 2.0? \n*How will a Shared Responsibility Model help me achieve CMMC 2.0 compliance? \n*What does my organization need to do next in regards to shared responsibility? \n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\nThe basics of the shared responsibility model\nWhy most control mappings are insufficient\nTying everything together within DFARS and CMMC\nThe Summit 7 approach\nTakeaways & Next Steps

SUMMARY:CMMC Version 2.0 Update Webinar
DESCRIPTION:About This Webinar\n\n\n\n\nOn November 4\, 2021\, The Department of Defense announced CMMC 2.0. This announcement comes with the strategic direction of the CMMC program\, including but not limited to: \n*Simplifying the CMMC standard and providing additional clarity on cybersecurity regulatory\, policy\, and contracting requirements \n*Focusing the most advanced cybersecurity standards and third-party assessment requirements on companies supporting the highest priority programs \n*Increasing Department oversight of professional and ethical standards in the assessment ecosystem \nIn this webinar\, Jacob Horne (Chief Security Evangelist at Summit 7)\, Robert Metzger (Attorney | Procurement Law\, Cyber & Supply Chain | National Security Matters)\, and Scott Edwards (CEO of Summit 7) will address the implications of CMMC 2.0 on the Defense Industrial Base\, and what this could mean for aerospace and defense contractors in the future. The two thought leaders will address what we know about the 2.0 update and what predicates it\, what we’re waiting to find out\, and what this potentially means for those seeking CMMC compliance in the DoD supply chain. As an attendee\, you’ll have a chance to ask these industry thought leaders questions regarding the update. \nU.S. DoD Strategic Direction for CMMC: https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/2833006/strategic-direction-for-cybersecurity-maturity-model-certification-cmmc-program/ \nCMMC 2.0 Website: https://www.acq.osd.mil/cmmc/
