Your continuing ability to do business with the federal government isn’t just dependent on fulfilling your obligation to execute a continuous awareness program.

This is a great resource for our employees, helps our company meet compliance, is affordable and the articles are worth reading.

Everyone (including you!) always asks “what’s in it for me” when they have to make choices about what to spend time on. Get around this question by equipping them to not only protect the company, but also their personal lives from the increasingly sophisticated threats targeting individuals and families.

Great newsletter. Information for cleared and uncleared personnel. Employees thank us for making the information available to them!

Make Your SMO the Sponsor–Make Security a Business Issue.
Show DCSA your SMO is actively engaged.
- CFR 117.7(c)(2) requires that the Senior Management Official (SMO) remain fully engaged with the security program.
- When your branded Employee Security Connection newsletter is sent directly from the SMO, it provides clear evidence of senior leadership engagement—something DCSA actively looks for.
- It also sends the message to every employee that security is a business issue.
When the newsletter is sent from the SMO, it shows visible leadership support, reinforces the importance of security across the organization, and provides a clear, documented example of SMO engagement—something DCSA pays close attention to during reviews.
Thomas Brown, Director, Government Security Services, AECOM
