CMMC Proof

Welcome to the CMMC Proof Podcast, strategically commanded by Derrich Phillips, a battle-hardened cybersecurity veteran, Certified CMMC Assessor, and Provisional Instructor.

Our mission: to navigate the complex battleground of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), with a tactical focus on the unique challenges and breakthrough strategies within the academies of higher education.

Each episode is a strategic operation, featuring elite conversations with the foremost commanders in cybersecurity – CIOs, CTOs, and CISOs from prestigious research universities.
We strategize on crucial topics, including:

- Maneuvering through the intricate terrains of CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 compliance in the academic sector.

- Decoding encrypted messages of best practices and lessons from the cybersecurity trenches in higher education.

- Outflanking cyber threats to protect sensitive research data and intellectual property.

- Deploying AI and cutting-edge tech for fortified cybersecurity defenses.

At the CMMC Proof Podcast, our goal is to transform compliance from a battlefield into a training ground for cybersecurity excellence in academia. We equip university leaders and IT warriors with the intelligence and arsenal needed to turn cybersecurity challenges into opportunities for victory and innovation.

Join us in the CMMC Proof Podcast for mission-critical insights and actionable intelligence that prepare you for a future where cybersecurity is the stronghold of academic and research success.

Salute to a future where cybersecurity compliance is your university's shield and spear in the digital age.
