In this episode, Tom Zinzi (Federal Sales Manager, BitSight) breaks down the results and implications from a recent BitSight Insights report which analyzes the security posture of US government contractors and subcontractors.

Listen as Tom discusses the importance of vendor risk management and continuous monitoring in the federal space, and best practices to proactively mitigate federal risk using Security Ratings.
