Federal contractors face a critical deadline this year with the phased implementation of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program. The Department of Defense (DOD) has made it clear that compliance is no longer optional, but many contractors are not fully prepared.
A recent hearing of the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security examined threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party and identified telecom provider Huawei as “a hostile state actor.” One expert witness called securing the global telecommunications core infrastructure “the defining challenge of the 21st century.”
That’s exactly what CMMC CON 2025 is built for. Hosted by CyberSheath, the largest CMMC managed service vendor, the virtual conference and longest-running CMMC event gathers defense contractors, cybersecurity experts, and policy insiders for a practical look at what it takes to get certified and stay compliant. This year’s theme, Compliance Blueprint – Plan. Execute. Certify., zeroes in on actionable steps for compliance success. For the first time, the event will be held across two days, Sept. 24-25, 2025, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. EDT, and registration is officially open.
“CMMC compliance is a matter of national security, essential to contractors protecting their organizations and the data they hold,” said Eric Noonan, CEO of CyberSheath. “For the past five years we have kept this event free to help strengthen security for the DIB. Thousands of attendees over the years have gained critical insights for compliance and we’ll have another impressive bench of speakers this year to pass along their knowledge, which will be announced in the coming weeks.”
Last year’s event included insights from Nicole Perlroth, esteemed cybersecurity journalist, author, and member of the CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee (CSAC); Michael Berger, Principal Defense and Aerospace Market Sector Leader; and Kelly Mullins, VP of Global Operations at Edge Case Research.
