Conference Event Summary
The following description was either submitted by the Conference Organizer on Thursday, June 11th 2020, or created by us.
On Jan. 31st, the Department of Defense (DoD) officially released its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) to certify DoD contractors’ cybersecurity practices and bolster supply chain security. CMMC’s revision has moved away from self-certification, replacing the current National Institute of Science and Technology’s (NIST) standards for cybersecurity with a five-level system of requirements for defense contractors.
The forum will feature Katie Arrington, Chief Information Security Officer at the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and a 2020 Wash100 Award recipient, as a keynote speaker. She will address the CMMC’s timeline, how the certification process could change and will provide a memorandum of understanding with a newly established CMMC accrediting body.
Join Potomac Officers Club for its CMMC Forum 2020 on June 24 to learn about the impact DoD’s CMMC will have on cybersecurity practices, supply chain security, and other aspects of the federal market.
