Data Governance Implementations for the DoD Based on Lessons Learned from CMMC with AvePoint

Event Date: March 5, 2021

Hosted By: AvePoint & Carahsoft

The introduction of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) comes with a renewed emphasis on securing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) across all layers of the DoD supply chain.

For DoD agencies and DIB contractors who are subject to CMMC, Microsoft 365 offers robust tools like DLP and AIP to protect content at the file level. However, to ensure CUI remains secure, IT requires an additional layer of control over where the data resides in their environment (i.e. Teams, SharePoint).

Striking the balance between enabling end-users to collaborate efficiently while maintaining secure control over these collaboration workspaces requires a strong data governance strategy to be in place.

In this podcast, Jay Leask, Principal Solution Engineer at AvePoint Public Sector and Bill Wootton, President of C3 Integrated Solutions explain how organizations across the DIB are implementing smart data governance strategies to navigate challenges in their M365 environments.

"Identify CUI, over half of the respondents say that's the biggest challenge, because that's step one. Just trying to understand where it is, and what is that data? And there are so many different ways to do it. " - Bill Wootton, President, C3 Integrated Solutions
