SUMMARY:MACO Winter Conference Winter 2023
DESCRIPTION:Now that county and state officials have navigated through their first year of a new term of office with a new Administration\, it’s time to batten down the hatches and prepare for potentially choppy waters ahead. With budgets stretched to the max\, and looming – but uncertain – county-funded commitments on the horizon\, local governments are in a precarious position. Add to that the ongoing concerns with affordable housing\, climate change\, and workforce recruitment and retention – among others – and it’s easy to see the perfect storm is brewing. This conference will discuss where Maryland is right now on these important issues\, what’s ahead\, and how governments and community partners can work together to face these challenges and weather the storm.

SUMMARY:"CMMC 2.0 Myths Busted" Live Dataprise Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Tune into Dataprise’s live webinar\, “CMMC 2.0 Myths Busted\,” on February 9 at 1:30pm EST\, presented by Edwards Senior Cybersecurity Consultant and Instructor\, Joy Beland. \nBeland collaborates with Datatprise’s professionals vCISO\, Samuel Bourgeois\, and vCISO Maximo Bredfeldt\, to bring you an hour long presentation on conceptions about CMMC 2.0 and how it affects your organization. \nIn November 2021 the DOD announced CMMC 2.0\, which introduces many changes and compliance requirement updates for federal contractors. Since the DOD’s codification of CMMC 2.0 in DFARS can take up to 24 months\, it’s unsurprising that misinformation around the program abounds. \nWhen it comes to CMMC 2.0\, have you wondered: \n\nIf this even applies to you since you don’t deal with DOD contracts?\nIf you should wait to get started only until everything is finalized?\nIf your compliance with other frameworks makes you CMMC compliant?\n\n\nIf your IT person or department can handle all this on their own?\n\nJoin our webinar with Dataprise as we bust the myths surrounding CMMC 2.0 and provide expert insight and guidance on taking actionable next steps. For more details or to register\, check out the event page here. \n
