SUMMARY:Cyber Thursday: Cybersecurity Requirements for Non-Department of War Contractors and Suppliers
DESCRIPTION:Federal cybersecurity requirements aren’t limited to Department of War contractors. Civilian agencies\, prime contractors\, and suppliers throughout the federal supply chain are increasingly subject to similar requirements\, even when they do not contract directly with the Department of War. This Cyber Thursday session is designed for contractors outside the Department of War ecosystem who still need to understand FAR 52.204 21 basic safeguarding requirements\, the forthcoming FAR CUI rule\, CISA directives\, and agency specific cybersecurity clauses that are frequently flowed down through federal contracts.\nThis session will cover current cybersecurity requirements\, what changes are expected in the near future\, and how to identify cybersecurity obligations embedded in contracts before they become compliance risks. Whether you contract directly with a civilian agency\, supply a federal prime contractor\, or are considering entering the federal marketplace for the first time\, this webinar will help you understand baseline expectations\, required documentation\, and practical first steps toward compliance. \nSpeaker: Matt Frost\, Government Contract Specialist\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute – WI APEX Accelerator \n\n\n\nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nFor the full schedule of the Cyber Thursday webinars\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Cyber Thursday: A Guide to Strong Supporting Documentation
DESCRIPTION:Strong supporting documentation is what separates a passing CMMC assessment from a failed one. Assessors do not award credit for controls they cannot verify on paper. This Cyber Thursday session walks contractors through the documentation that underpins a CMMC Level 2 assessment\, including the System Security Plan (SSP)\, policies and procedures\, the Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M)\, evidence artifacts\, and the assessment objective mappings that tie everything together.\nThis session covers what each document should contain\, how a C3PAO assessor uses documentation during an assessment\, common reasons documentation is rejected\, and how to organize an evidence package that withstands assessor scrutiny. Contractors preparing for a CMMC assessment\, developing their first SSP\, or refining existing documentation will leave with a clearer understanding of what “assessment ready” documentation looks like and where gaps commonly occur. \nSpeaker: Matt Frost\, Government Contract Specialist\, Wisconsin Procurement Institute – WI APEX Accelerator \n\n\n\nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit. \nFor the full schedule of the Cyber Thursday webinars\, please click here.
