With Microsoft Defender for Identity and the integration of Azure AD Identity Protection and Cloud App Security, monitoring and alerting can be applied for identities that span both on premises and in the cloud. Learn how Microsoft Defender for Identity uses adaptive built-in intelligence, giving you insights into suspicious activities and events, revealing the advanced threats, compromised users, and insider threats facing your organization. All of this and more can assist in meeting CMMC and DFARS requirements tied to NIST 800-171 / 53. In this video famed Microsoft Security Architect and speaker Matt Soseman (aka.ms/SosemanTV - 6K+ Subscribers) provides this excellent introduction to Microsoft Defender for Identity and how it addresses several key Practices and Domains within #CMMC.Protecting Public Data and Trust with Azure Security and Microsoft Entra – A State DOJ Case
On June 27, 2022 - California Department of Justice launched a new Firearms Dashboard Portal with altruistic intentions to “improve transparency and information sharing for firearms-related data” and “balance its duties to provide gun violence and firearms data to support research efforts while protecting the personal identifying information in the data the Department collects and maintains”. Fast forward less than 30 days, the Attorney General’s office is now being sued by two different parties, a national non-profit on July 1 and a group of four CA citizens on July 18 respectively. Both lawsuits are predicated on the assumption that the bold text was not upheld. The CA DOJ and the CA Attorney General are not alone in facing the three pressures that incited this particular incident. Citizens want greater transparency when it comes to community health data, criminal activity, and other politically impacted domains like firearm ownership. This data comes in many forms (databases, video footage, internal reports/memos, court documents, etc.) and resides on a broad array of digital locations. This data is of special interest to hackers looking to leverage Personal Identifiable Information (PII) for financial gain OR hacktivists desiring to expose a particular truth or perceived truth by leaking the information to the broader public.Final 2021 Cloud Security and Compliance Series (CS2) Virtual Conference
