Is your organization getting ready to undergo a formal Conformity Assessment for NIST SP 800-171?  If so, you need to watch this video!!! You need to understand the similarities between Assessors and Toddlers.

With the uptick in non-voluntary and Joint Surveillance Voluntary Assessments (JSVA) done by the Defense Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assurance Center (DIBCAC), understanding the mindset of your Assessor (cough “toddler”) is critical for your survival.
