There are so many good presenters. I really liked the information. It's really relevant.
CS2 is awesome because it's really important for small businesses to be represented and also to be heard among those in the clients and cloud security environments.
I think with CMMC and the changing landscape and sometimes uncertainty and noise out there, it's great to have CS2 at a regular cadence. So I know I can come here and have a room full of experts and learn about what I need to focus on in the coming months.
Just wrapping up our time here at CS2, had a great couple of days here, took a lot of great notes and we'll be using those along with the slides and talking points, to go back and talk to leadership about a lot of things that we've learned here.
I’m more on the tech side, so getting into NIST & DFARS and seeing how to implement controls. I learned everything I needed to, so I'm very glad that I came.
