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.

Downloadable Gold Comet Cyber Digest: Our debut issue discusses CMMC Readiness and Compliance Essentials - What You Need to Know.

When most business owners think of a data breach, they imagine a sudden, headline-grabbing event involving hackers and massive data dumps. They imagine that breach happening to a big company with Big Data.   But for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), the real cost of a security breach is often far more complex and happens far more often than you think.

Whether you’re a CISO, an IT lead, or just someone responsible for keeping sensitive data safe, having the right cybersecurity metrics in place is a smart management move. If you want to better understand which key performance indicators (KPIs) really matter—and how to use them to improve your cybersecurity without drowning in data or tech jargon, then read on.

CMMC is critically important for protecting the nation’s security. As defense contractors increasingly operate in a digitally and globally interconnected world, the risk of cyber espionage and IP theft has grown. CMMC compliance ensures companies handling CUI follow strict protocols to safeguard data, reduce risk, and maintain trust at all points along the supply chain.

Secure collaboration is a global enterprise imperative in an increasingly hybrid work environment. This post explores how remote work is reshaping security protocols, why zero trust is becoming the gold standard, and what tools can help organizations stay compliant in a hybrid work environment. Success lies in securing every point of digital interaction.

Technological evolution is transforming the way teams communicate, share, and innovate. By 2030, the line between online collaboration and physical workspaces will blur, creating a unified secure collaboration environment powered by emerging technologies.

The rise of cloud security risks requires enterprises, especially those working within or alongside the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), to rethink and reinforce strategies for secure cloud storage, compliance, and governance.

Data residency and sovereignty are becoming more complex as companies expand across borders, partner with international vendors, and adopt cloud-based platforms.

Advancements in technology are fast reshaping global defense capabilities making cybersecurity a critical factor in innovation and strategy.

The cybersecurity world is discovering the need to look at “privilege” through a new lens: Role Based Access Control, or RBAC.

Cybersecurity and compliance are no longer separate concerns - the two are integrally linked and both are vulnerable to attack.

Zero Trust Architecture provides a robust framework for securing modern data management systems against unauthorized access.

The defense sector is a prime target for cybersecurity challenges due to its vast repositories of highly sensitive data,

CMMC compliance is particularly concerned with the safe handling of CUI and other sensitive data due to implications for national security.

Gold Comet’s platform delivers quantum-integrated solutions for data storage, data sharing, and messaging for Zero Trust Collaboration.

CMMC 2.0 emphasizes stringent security measures to protect CUI, making encryption a critical component for compliance.

Increased reliance on remote work has widened the scope for potential vulnerabilities and cybersecurity attacks when sharing files.

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) helps organizations maintain control over their data, preventing breaches and mitigating risks.

The average consumer loves new technology and doesn't worry about info-stealers, but here are 15 ways they can exploit your valuable data.
