CPE Information
Live event participants can earn up to 1.5 CPE credits in the Accounting (Governmental) field of study.

Program description: Over the past year, White House memorandums and executive orders have focused on boosting the government’s ability to identify, understand, and mitigate cyber-risks across National Security Systems and more explicitly for federal government agencies to adopt the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidelines for cloud computing and Zero Trust Architecture (SP800-207). Join us for a discussion on the evolution of zero trust in today’s IT environment. The panel will speak to the importance of a zero trust architecture in the CMMC/DFARS compliance space, and how it became such an important cybersecurity mandate for organizations to implement. We will also review the different zero trust maturity levels, including a deeper dive into the maturity model developed by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). And finally, the panel will cover where organizations should focus as you embark on your implementation journey and the common challenges encountered along the way.
