Demystifying the CMMC Rule: A Breakdown of the Proposed Regulation



Our webinar CUI Explainer Series is back just in time to cover the CMMC Final Rule!

 

This time, we’re taking the mystery out of CMMC, providing our analysis and definitive guidance on the Rule, from justifications and public comments to requirements, cost analysis, and more.

 

Presented without fluff or drama, this 45-minute webinar, followed by audience Q&A, may be the most important session about CMMC this year.

 

If you are a DIB contractor or subcontractor, an IT or MSP service provider, a program manager, or a contracting officer, then this plain-language webinar is for you.

 

We’ll cover:

  • Requirements for each CMMC level
  • The CMMC rollout
  • How public comments have shaped this Proposed Rule
  • New impacts for non-compliance
  • How cloud service provider’s security posture will impact assessments
  • How cybersecurity provider’s security posture will impact assessments
