Case Study Posted: Training for STIG / UC APL Listing for Large Security Vendor

siteadmin — Sat, 03 Mar 2012 16:29:26 +0000

Apex has posted a new case study highlighting our delivery of an internal training program to focus on DOD assurance, and specifically STIG and UC APL listing. Our team has practical experience leading these efforts for major vendors, and Apex Assurance was selected to train a large security vendor’s sales and product teams on the details for STIG testing and UC APL listing. The training was a success and was integrated into the customer’s formal education program.

We’ve written a very basic primer for DOD Information Assurance, STIG, and UC APL, available here. This only scratches the surface but does give readers a basic understanding of terminology and process. Our DOD IA / UC APL consulting services are tailored to help product vendors define and execute on strategies for DOD and UC APL listing.
