WHO THE COURSE IS FOR?

This course is designed for organizations that will seek Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). It examines maturity cybersecurity practices, their potential impact on your organization and the resources needed to successfully implement, as well as a brief walkthrough of the assessment process.

COURSE CONTENTS

The Defense Industrial Base (DIB) sector consists of companies that contribute to research, engineering, production, delivery, operations, installation, and support services.

The cyber actors continue to target the DIB sector and the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain for intellectual property and unclassified information. The DoD has released the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) to ensure appropriate cybersecurity controls and processes to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) on DoD contractor systems.

Part I of the six-part series begins with knowing third-party cyber weaknesses and driving factors for Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification. The course learnings include knowledge about NIST SP 800-171 Controls, Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Clause 52.204.21 for protecting Federal Contract Information (FCI), Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Clause 252.204-7012 for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and NIST SP 800-171 Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Non-Federal Systems and Organizations.

This interactive training course will ensure professionals and practitioners at all levels understand their roles and responsibilities, new developments, resources, and hallmarks of an effective compliance program. In this course, you will be asked to read through lessons, participate in learning activities, and partake in knowledge checks designed to reinforce learning, followed by the end of the course final assessment.
