Cybersecurity Training and Awareness

Support Compliance Through Informed Personnel

Cybersecurity requirements depend on consistent execution across the organization. Personnel must understand how to recognize risk, follow required practices, and support compliance with frameworks such as CMMC and NIST 800-171.

Training and awareness programs reinforce the behaviors required to maintain secure systems and meet compliance expectations.

What This Supports

• Recognition of cybersecurity risks and threats
• Alignment with required security practices and policies
• Consistent execution across teams and roles
• Reinforcement of CMMC and NIST 800-171 requirements

Where This Applies
Organizations supporting federal and defense-related work where personnel actions directly affect system security, compliance posture, and audit readiness.

How It Fits into CMMC Readiness
Training and awareness support multiple stages of the CMMC pathway:

• Preparation for assessment through personnel readiness
• Ongoing compliance through reinforced practices
• Reduced risk of gaps between policy and execution

Next Step
Cybersecurity training and awareness are most effective when aligned with a defined compliance path.
