Maryland Innovation and Security Institute (MISI), a Columbia-based not-for-profit known for its DreamPort Cyber Mission Accelerator and global cybersecurity network, was awarded a contract with Genedge Alliance, a part of the NIST Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP).
Genedge serves manufacturers in Virginia.
MISI was chosen to offer its Jensie platform and suite of NIST, CMMC and continuous compliance and cyber threat discovery technologies.
MISI will also offer training, CMMC compliance readiness coaching, and pen/red team testing on-demand and its M-SOC cloud-hosted security operations center and SIEM.
