If you’re working in cybersecurity today, you’ve probably felt the pressure of managing multiple compliance frameworks at once. It’s like trying to juggle while riding a unicycle: technically possible, but not exactly fun. Two frameworks that often end up on the same organization’s plate are ISO 27001 and the CMMC, and they can either work… Read More
Federal contractors and cloud service providers face an increasingly complex web of compliance requirements. Two frameworks dominate this landscape: CMMC and FedRAMP. This challenge hits hardest for organizations serving multiple federal sectors or providing both traditional contracting services and cloud solutions. These companies must navigate overlapping requirements, duplicate their documentation efforts, and maintain separate compliance… Read More
Automapping CMMC with NIST 800-53 If you’re a DoD contractor, you’ve probably felt the pain of juggling multiple cybersecurity frameworks. Between CMMC requirements and NIST 800-53 compliance, you’re doing the same work. Automating these frameworks can help you work smarter, not harder, while maintaining a strong security program. For organizations serving both government and commercial… Read More
Compliance and cybersecurity teams are facing a growing challenge: proving they meet regulatory requirements while maintaining strong security in an increasingly complex and fast-moving business landscape. Traditional methods for mapping controls, processes, and risk areas simply can’t keep up in today’s ever-evolving regulatory environment. This is where automapping steps in as a game-changer, revolutionizing how… Read More
Automapping CMMC Practices to NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP: Challenges and Strategies Automapping CMMC practices to other compliance frameworks such as NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP is an attractive option for security teams managing complex regulatory landscapes. On paper, many of these frameworks cover overlapping domains: access control, audit logging, incident response, risk… Read More
To help limit compliance costs and support local adoption of stringent cybersecurity measures, the StateRAMP organization has announced that it is moving forward with a plan to map the Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS) framework into StateRAMP. What does this mean for CSPs at the state level? So far, we don’t know much, but it… Read More
CMMC is already a comprehensive framework that the DoD uses to secure its digital supply chain. The maturity model includes three levels corresponding to the increasingly deep incorporation of NIST controls targeting the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), specifically from Special Publications 800-171 and 800-172. Organizations meeting CMMC requirements, therefore, meet the standards required… Read More
CMMC is a crucial framework developed by the Department of Defense to enhance the cybersecurity posture of contractors within the Defense Industrial Base. The CMMC model is crucial for organizations dealing with Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) because it ensures that these entities meet specific cybersecurity requirements to protect sensitive information. More likely than not, however,… Read More
