SBA and DHS producing CDM pilot for better data security




Federal Drive with Tom Temin show

Summary: Whether it’s helping small businesses recover from natural disasters or just getting the word about its services, the Small Business Administration deploys its personnel all across the country. SBA has led the charge on cloud migration to give its employees in the field access to the data they need. Now it’s wrapped up a continuous diagnostics and mitigation, or CDM, pilot with the Department of Homeland Security to better secure that data. SBA Chief Information Officer Maria Roat gave Federal News Network’s Jory Heckman an update on the pilot and what the agency is doing to modernize its cybersecurity.
