The Office of Management and Budget issued new guidance last week modernizing FedRAMP to support federal agencies' adoption of secure commercial cloud services. Some of the updates include establishing FedRAMP within GSA, expanding authorization paths, and driving automation to streamline the process. These changes aim to enable federal agencies to leverage the commercial cloud while ensuring their robust security. This advancement streamlines the process, especially with the presumption of adequacy decision, and is a significant advancement for cloud adoption in the government!" https://lnkd.in/gtZJAT5g Reach out to Giancarlo Casella, CISSP, CISM, CISA if you need assistance on your FedRamp journey in AWS! #FedRAMP #CloudComputing #CyberSecurity #GovTech #AWS #SecurityAssuranceServices

UPDATED with link to event recording here: https://lnkd.in/gEnj2i_7 Today's U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology’s Standards Forum was a real treat! The main theme was NIST’s commitment to advancing global standardization as a strategic priority for the U.S. - super-relevant for these times, and great to see brilliant minds sharing their experience and ideas to catalyze innovation and economic growth through standards. Key topics covered: -Advancing standardization for Critical and Emerging Technologies, which includes AI and cybersecurity (core for M&E!) -Creating and leveraging public-private partnerships -Pre-standardization strategies (there’s a lot of necessary and useful things to do before actually writing standards!) -Engaging industry stakeholders Follow the links for information on the Standards Forum and the U.S. National Standards Strategy for CET https://lnkd.in/gEnj2i_7 https://lnkd.in/gvMFajgq #NIST #ArtificalIntelligence

I really appreciate K12 SIX and Douglas Levin's proactive approach to K-12 cybersecurity. Instead of just reacting to incidents, he's equipping schools with the practical tools and knowledge to get ahead of the curve - and genuinely making a difference. This kind of forward-thinking leadership is essential in today's threat landscape. #cybersecurity #education.
