Maintaining compliance with government regulations can be daunting for many companies. This is especially true when it comes to the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), which requires Department of Defense (DoD) contractors to implement specific security controls in order to protect sensitive data pertaining to national security.

Cloud computing and Software-as-a-Service providers play a big role in their clients' data security. When providers mishandle data, organizations can be left vulnerable to cyberattacks like malware installation, data theft, and more.

Most data breaches are easily avoidable by taking a proactive stance. By contrast, businesses used to rely primarily on reactive measures, such as conventional antivirus software. However, while these measures are still important too, they only kick in once a threat has already made it past your network, potentially causing serious disruption in the process.
