Common Issues and Concerns Organizations Face in CMMC Compliance…and How to Prepare for Them | Presented by Kratos
Watch the Webinar

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a unified security standard and a certification process developed by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to significantly enhance cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). The CMMC framework requires organizations seeking certification to undergo a security assessment conducted by a CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), of which Kratos is one of only two companies authorized at this time. Kratos’ assessment process consists of four phases (Planning, Assessment, Results and Remediation) that are designed to provide organization seeking certification with the greatest opportunity for success.

Agenda:

  • What is CMMC and who needs it?
  • Strategic and operational challenges of implementing CMMC
  • What we have learned from our CMMC customers
  • Pre-assessment steps that can facilitate a smooth assessment and CMMC certification
  • The Kratos assessment process
  • How can we stay informed about CMMC?

Get Better Cybersecurity With Less Cost By Leveraging DevSecOps
Watch the Webinar

Risk comes in many forms. When designing, building, and maintaining complex systems such as satellites there are many opportunities for risk that you need to consider, and some conflict with each other. For example: Risk of a security breach vs risk of performance impact by implementing security protocols. Or, the risk of incurring cost to implement security vs the cost risk (financial and reputational) of a breach. It isn’t an easy path to navigate.

In this webinar we will give you 5 ways you can mitigate risk that will result in more secure satellite systems while keeping your cost under control.
