FREE Executive Webinar:
“CMMC After the Pause: What Defense Contractors Need to Do Now”

Webinar Details:
LIVE: Thursday, September 17, 2026
Start Time: 10:00 a.m. Pacific time
Location: Microsoft Teams Link (to be provided after registration)
Presenter: Matt Katzer
The Department of War’s recent decision to suspend CMMC Phase II requirements has created uncertainty across the Defense Industrial Base. While the certification process is under review, cybersecurity requirements such as NIST 800-171, DFARS obligations, and SPRS scoring remain in place.
Join KAMIND IT for a practical discussion of what the CMMC pause means for defense contractors and how to make informed compliance decisions during this period of change.
During this webinar, we’ll discuss:
- What the DoW’s suspension of CMMC Phase II actually means for contractors
- The ongoing role of NIST 800-171 Rev. 2 and emerging Rev. 3 requirements
- Whether organizations should continue investing in CMMC readiness
- The likelihood of certification requirements returning in the future
- Potential impacts on certification costs and assessment availability
- Practical recommendations for protecting contract eligibility and reducing risk
Key Takeaway: The certification mechanism may be paused. Your cybersecurity responsibilities are not. Organizations that continue strengthening their security posture will be better positioned regardless of how the DoW ultimately reshapes the program.
Reserve your seat today to gain clarity on what’s next for CMMC and your compliance strategy.
We look forward to seeing you there!
P.S. Bring your questions. We expect plenty of discussion around whether contractors can safely “wait and see” or whether continuing on the path to compliance remains the smarter business decision.
