This session will focus on the new Federal Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Cybersecurity standards providing an overview and pitfalls from actual assessments. Covering NIST 800-171 and specific objective evidentiary requirements, this session will cut through rumors and provide actionable, credible, insight into what is required by organizations that support the Federal Government. Specific examples will be provided from assessments and identify where organizations fell short as well as best practices that allowed these organizations to pass the new standard. Highlighting items that are most commonly “Not Met” to include rationale used, this session will equip organizations to equate standard requirements with operational parameters.
