Due to the proliferation of intellectual property that has resulted in the loss of trillions of dollars, the Department of Defense (DoD) and Federal Agencies is focusing its attention concerning the safeguard of sensitive but unclassified information that resides on industry's networks and systems.

This is the fourth of five webcast sessions and focuses on the Request for Information/Proposal (RFI/RFP) contract strategy that acquisition workforce professionals may consider to implement the CMMC process.

Speaker: Christopher Newborn, a member of Department of Defense's (DoD) Acquisition and Cybersecurity Workforce, was appointed as a Professor of Information Technology (Cybersecurity Emphasis) at the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) in August 2015. Mr. Newborn duties include developing curriculum, teaching, and consulting members of the Acquisition and Cybersecurity Workforce who are responsible for acquiring, deploying, and maintaining cybersecurity capabilities and defending DoD's networks, systems, and data.
