Whenever a business wants to work with the federal government, they are going to have to comply with certain frameworks to guarantee that, as part of the federal supply chain, it is secured to an appropriate level. The specific frameworks and standards vary based on factors such as impact levels and whether or not you’re in an industry with specific guidelines, like HIPAA or DoD standards.

Any business or service provider looking to work with the federal government or one of its departments or agencies is going to need to comply with one of the security frameworks as appropriate for their role, usually something like CMMC, FedRAMP, or HITRUST. A key part of these security frameworks is verification and validation that security measures are in place and that continuous monitoring is effective.

ConMon: FedRAMP Continuous Monitoring and How It Works Obtaining a software approval with the federal government and its agencies as a contractor and obtaining an Authority to Operate (ATO) is not a one-time process. We’re not just referring to the need to recertify annually and pass occasional audits. We’re talking about an additional part of the process, the final part of the NIST Risk Management Framework: Monitoring.

What is OSCAL and Why Does It Matter for NIST and FedRAMP? Complying with federal cybersecurity guidelines is a difficult task. Unfortunately, many contractors and cloud service providers take a rather lax view of compliance, and it’s an all-too-common scenario for a company to build up standards and practices for audit time and let them slip immediately thereafter until the lead-up to the next audit. Part of this is simply the immense complexity of cybersecurity.

One of the biggest challenges for a business with any sort of information security needs is ensuring proper handling of that information. With hundreds of data breaches, large and small, happening every single year, you don’t want to be a statistic. More than that, though, if you’re working on a government contract and using a framework like HITRUST, HIPAA, or FedRAMP, you need to adhere to high standards.

As time marches on and technology develops, there’s a constant push and pull between information security and attempts to breach that security. Obscurity – simply hiding from sight – isn’t enough with automated processes capable of scanning any possible address looking for signs of life, so much of modern computer security comes down to cryptography. Pretty much everyone has some experience with cryptography, from our childhood spy media to modern computer science.

In today’s digital age, destroying data is not as easy as it once was. Before the advent of computers, if you needed to destroy sensitive government information to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands, all you often needed to do was light some papers on fire. With computers, you might think that it’s a simple matter. After all, if you’ve ever accidentally deleted a file or had a hard disk crash, you’ve probably lost data and haven’t been able to recover it.

In the world of government contracting, information security is taken very seriously. There are a dozen different standards for security depending on who you are, what information you handle, and what department you’re working with. We’ve talked about many of them before, such as DFARS, FedRAMP, and CMMC, but there’s yet another to discuss. As you’ve guessed, if you’ve read the title, or as you know from seeing this post, we’re talking about FIPS.

When choosing to take up government contracts, most businesses face one of the common compliance frameworks for security. They need to climb the mountain to achieve compliance with a framework like CMMC, FedRAMP, or maybe something like HIPAA if they’re in the healthcare space. Relatively few need to comply with a more esoteric – and higher-intensity – framework known as ITAR. What is ITAR, and what do you need to know if you’re a business that needs to use it? Let’s dig in.

In this video, you'll learn about CMMC 2.0 Level 1 and Level 2 Assessments, and more specifically about.

In this video, you will learn.

When CMMC was first introduced by the DoD, its purpose was to “normalize and standardized cybersecurity preparedness across the federal government’s Defense Industrial Base or DIB.” Essentially, they recognized a weakness in cybersecurity hygiene practices in their supply chain, and so CMMC became the standard the DIB would be “graded” by to ensure the protection of sensitive or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

The improved CMMC 2.0 introduced multiple changes to the audit assurance process. What are those changes and what steps should you take to ensure the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)?

Cybersecurity is risk that affects all levels of business. Many credit unions don't have the tools or resources they need to efficiently track and mitigate the risks associated with non-compliance. This white paper talks about seven steps to manage Credit Union Cyber risk.

Ignyte is the ultimate translation engine for simplifying compliance across regulations, standards, and guidelines.

Today’s organizations are relying on legacy platforms with hidden software development costs. We help organizations get to value fast, improve their GRC experience, and make smarter business decisions.

Legacy GRC platforms and ever increasing hidden costs of software development has led to an inefficient method of managing paths to cybersecurity maturity. We coin this as the “Cyber Assurance Gap.” Learn first-hand how we deliver an experience that is more transformative, intelligent, and integrated than ever.

Challenge the Status Quo:

  • Integrated GRC: Integrate seamlessly with other applications and existing business processes.
  • Cut Costs, Not Corners: Reduce errors, improve efficiencies, and reduce security management costs overtime.
  • Time to Value: Ignyte Assurance Platform is built from the ground up by seasoned experts to get to value fast.

Welcome to the Next Era of Cyber Assurance.
