    AI Experiment Update

    AI isn't standing still—and neither is our experience using it.In this episode of Cyber Sitrep, Eric provides the latest update in his ongoing AI experiment, sharing how his day-to-day use of artificial intelligence continues to evolve. Since we first started discussing AI on the podcast, new tools, new workflows, and new lessons have changed how it's being used in real-world cybersecurity and IT work.From research and documentation to problem-solving and productivity, we discuss what's actually working, what still isn't, and how AI has become another tool in the toolbox rather than a replacement for experience and expertise.If you've been following our AI discussions—or you're just curious about how cybersecurity professionals are using AI beyond the hype—this episode is for you.🎙️ Cyber Sitrep – Episode #46Title: AI Experiment Update📅 New episodes every Wednesday at 1:00 PM MST Links: Corvus website: https://www.corvus-tech.net/ Digital Beachhead website: https://digitalbeachhead.com/ The Cyber Sitrep brings you all the latest cybersecurity news, commentary, and threat intelligence.

    Artifacts: We're Talking About CMMC, Not Archaeology

    When someone says "artifacts," your first thought probably isn't cybersecurity. In this episode of Cyber Sitrep, Eric and Mike explain what CMMC artifacts really are, why they're essential for demonstrating compliance, and why organizations should treat them as trusted evidence—not just paperwork. From screenshots and configuration exports to logs, policies, and other forms of documentation, artifacts help tell the story of your cybersecurity program. But collecting them isn't enough—you also need to preserve known-good artifacts so there's no question about their authenticity or integrity when it's time for an assessment or audit. If you're preparing for CMMC, supporting NIST 800-171 compliance, or simply want to build better cybersecurity documentation practices, this episode breaks down why artifacts matter and how to manage them with confidence.

    CMMC Scoping: NO SERIOUSLY!!!!

    One of the most misunderstood topics in cybersecurity compliance isn't the controls—it's scoping. In this episode of Cyber Sitrep, Eric and Mike dive into CMMC scoping and explain why defining your assessment boundary correctly is one of the most important steps in achieving compliance. What systems are actually in scope? What can be excluded? And why do so many organizations get this wrong? If you've ever found yourself asking, "Does this system need to be included?" or "Where do we draw the line?"—this episode is for you. Whether you're preparing for a CMMC assessment, supporting Department of Defense contracts, or simply trying to better understand compliance requirements, we break down the concepts in a practical, real-world way.
