HAMILTON, NJ, UNITED STATES, March 15, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The US government is increasingly focused on protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) that it shares with non-federal entities. For businesses in the US Defense Industrial Base (DIB), this includes more aggressive verification of compliance with cybersecurity dictates in defense contracts.

If your company is participating in a US Department of Defense (DoD) contract that says you are receiving CUI and need to protect it, one of the biggest security impacts is a requirement to move from your commercial Microsoft 365 environment to one of Microsoft’s two “gov clouds”—Microsoft Government Community Cloud (GCC) or GCC High.

To give DIB orgs a clear picture of their Microsoft 365 options, the latest episode of The Virtual CISO Podcast features Conrad Agramont from Agile IT. John Verry, Pivot Point Security’s CISO and Managing Partner, hosts the show.

Topics discussed include:
• How the three Microsoft 365 clouds differ in terms of key security capabilities
• The importance of communicating with your government program office about the cybersecurity requirements in your contract
• What migration from commercial Microsoft 365 to a “gov cloud” can look like in terms of time, cost, and effort
• The two hardest aspects of any Microsoft 365 migration
• Pros and cons of a “hybrid approach” involving multiple Microsoft 365 environments

To gain a business-level understanding of Microsoft 365 options for your business, be sure to listen in on this podcast with Conrad Agramont from Agile IT.
