Watch this free webinar to learn how to prioritize CMMC and NIST 800-171 requirements
Once you understand the differences between NIST 800-171 and CMMC and the implementation of the Interim Rule, it’s time to determine which certification is best-suited to your company’s needs in the short term and long term.
Although the CMMC has similar IT compliance requirements to the NIST 800-171, it requires contractors to be certified by official assessment organizations called CMMC 3rd Party Assessment Organizations (C2PAOs). Spoiler alert – for now, most contractors achieve the necessary level of compliance to work with the DoD with a NIST 800-171 certification. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t start preparing for CMMC compliance right away.
This webinar is the third installment of a four-part ongoing series on NIST 800-171 and CMMC compliance requirements, as well as the key factors in determining which certification to prioritize for your business needs. To view the other webinars in the series, click here.
