Too Much, Too Little, and Just Right (D01c)

Chris Silvers and Kat Adams approach documentation from differing perspectives, creating an engaging, debate-style talk. Chris (CISSP, Certified Ethical Hacker) is a hacker by trade, having started his career performing social engineering penetration tests for small businesses. Entering the CMMC ecosystem through his compliance work, he views the human element as the most critical defense in a lean environment. Kat, on the other hand, is Air Force-trained, a Dean’s List graduate of Bellevue University, and a senior cybersecurity consultant with experience as a remedy administrator. She is a proponent of change control and believes that excellent documentation is the key to sustaining security in a policy-driven environment.

This talk provides a balanced exploration of CMMC requirements, empowering the audience to choose an approach that aligns with their organization’s needs.
