With the recent surge of high-profile data breaches, supply chain vulnerabilities (SolarWinds, Log4j, and MOVEit, most notably), and targeted cyberattacks, the digital world is becoming increasingly precarious. At the same time, consumers are increasingly sharing sensitive data with companies in exchange for convenience and efficiency. For these reasons, organizations have a growing responsibility to not only avoid breaches, but safeguard their users’ data.

Cybersecurity is becoming a critical concern as various industries depend on digital infrastructure. To protect sensitive information from cyber threats, governments worldwide have introduced cybersecurity regulations for specific sectors that help secure digital ecosystems and prevent cyber attacks. Understanding the specific regulations for your organization’s industry is essential for risk management.

The 60-day comment period begins for the new proposed CMMC rule published in the Federal Register. The Department of Defense’s CMMC program office has broken its silence for the long awaited publishing of its new Proposed CMMC Rule on December 26th in the Federal Register.

In an era where regulatory frameworks are continuously evolving, and the cost of non-compliance is higher than ever, organizations are increasingly turning to compliance risk management software. Such tools not only streamline the process of adhering to legal and ethical standards but also safeguard against the financial and reputational damages of non-compliance.

Compliance with federal cybersecurity guidelines is three things: It’s also a very complex set of rules, guidelines, and standards that address everything from the physical security of your servers and network access to the training your employees receive. On top of that, it’s packed full of acronyms and definitions, all of which have specific meaning. SSP is one of them; it’s a critical document you need to win contracts with the government and is part of the CMMC.

Navigating the federal government’s cybersecurity standards and processes is not easy. Figuring out how to comply with all of the various standards and controls is a lengthy process involving thorough auditing and analysis Mediaof your entire organization from top to bottom. When government contracts and sensitive information is at stake, though, it’s all taken very seriously. Today, we’ll talk about the FedRAMP impact levels and explain each one.

Organizations must always be aware of the constantly changing compliance landscape to protect their sensitive assets and avoid paying millions in fines. The rapid development of cyber threats fueled by the global pandemic and cyberwarfare have forced the European Union (EU) to update its NIS Directive. We understand the pain of having to read hundreds of requirements and legislation documents, so we’ve done it for you.

These statistics show that organizations struggled to maintain basic cybersecurity practices in 2023. But what can organizations do to improve their networks and help prevent attacks in 2024?

So you want to use AI-generated code in your software or maybe your developers already are using it. Is it too risky? Large language model technology is progressing at rapid speeds, and policy makers are ill-equipped to catch up quickly. Anything resembling legal clarity may take years to come about. Some organizations are deciding not to use AI at all for code generation, while others are using it cautiously — but everyone has questions.
