Secure collaboration has become one of the biggest cybersecurity challenges for regulated industries. Whether in defense, healthcare, finance, or government contracting, teams must work across hybrid environments, sharing sensitive data between internal employees, external partners, auditors, and customers.

Many DIB organizations are adopting a GRC framework, Governance, Risk, and Compliance, to manage security responsibilities more effectively.

At Gold Comet, we believe secure data storage is about how data behaves after it is stored. Our platform ensures that every file, message, and record remains protected throughout its lifecycle—not just while sitting on a server.

Searches for secure data storage and sharing foundations, and compliance platforms and data security for regulatory compliance are rising for a reason: organizations are recognizing that compliance starts with data protection, not just documented policies and striving to follow rules.

In cybersecurity, prevention gets most of the attention, but data management and reliable backups determine whether an organization survives an incident or becomes a headline. Ransomware, insider mistakes, hardware failures, and cloud misconfigurations all have one thing in common: when data is lost or corrupted, recovery depends entirely on how well it was managed and backed up beforehand.

Privileged Access Management (PAM) has become a central pillar in modern cybersecurity frameworks, from CMMC to NIST 800-171 to enterprise-level governance programs. For organizations seeking a platform that’s built with PAM principles at its core, Gold Comet, our cybersecurity company based in Virginia, stands out as a secure, zero-trust, encryption-first alternative to legacy systems.

In this post are 27 data-backed statistics from 2024–2025 that summarize where cybercrime is concentrated today and what organizations must know to prepare for next year.

Compliance with security requirements is now more important than ever -- that means you should have a well implemented Data Security Posture Management Plan in place and operational! For those working in the DIB, CMMC accreditation has been made a federal requirement for the proposal bid process, contract and task order management, and participation in the federal supply chain. Here are some best practices to consider and what's on the horizon for DSPM.
