One of the clearest themes from the “Inside the Audit” panel: CMMC scoping is about reducing risk, not expanding complexity. As Sammy Chowdhury of Prescient Security said: “You don’t get extra credit for bringing extra information in scope. You get extra cost. You get extra headache…The best CMMC scope is not necessarily the biggest.” The panel featuring Mike Gallagher of A-LIGN, Adam G. of Insight Assurance, as well as Sammy Chowdhury unpacked what organizations are getting right (and wrong) as CMMC assessments accelerate.

Two days out from our CDR insights webinar. Quick context on why this one is worth the calendar block for cybersecurity marketers: The full report is built for benchmarking. Numbers, comparisons, year-over-year deltas. What it doesn't include is the "yeah, but why?" conversation. That's what the webinar is for. CyberEdge has been running this study for 13 years. Our CEO & Founder, Steve Piper, has seen which findings reliably predict the next year's behavior and which are noise. The webinar is the version of the report that includes that signal-vs-noise filter, with implications for messaging, positioning, and 2026 campaign planning. If your marketing team is using the CDR for ICP refreshes, competitive positioning, content calendar inputs, or board reporting, send them the registration link. Wednesday May 6th @ 10am PT / 1pm ET. Free + one attendee will win a $100 Amazon gift card.

‘Quality assurance is going to be a big thing. How do you know your tools are being effective? We have to assume that two years from now, a large percentage of attacks will be AI-leveraged. We need to challenge our vendors on how they’re implementing AI in email protection, in SIEM tools, everywhere,’ says ConnectWise CISO Patrick Beggs. https://okt.to/fauVTG
