Cyber Risks are Everywhere. How Much $$ Can You Afford to Lose?
Instructor: Azunna Anyanwu, CMMC, RP – Director, Technology Security & Advisory with Aronson LLC
There is a lot of risk inherent in working as a governmentcontractor. There are also regulatory and compliance expectations (like NIST 800-171 and CMMC 2.0). And the financial impact of a cyber-attack can be significant and there is the potential for financial penalties (FALSE Claims Act anyone?). We will describe what you can do now to reduce your risks and make progress towards compliance expectations.
