Live Webinar

Tuesday, November 12

10 am PT / 1 pm ET

The Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) are standards from the Department of Defense (DoD) that capture the cybersecurity requirements for software applications; they’re also known to be complex and difficult to create and implement.

The latest FedRAMP revision 5 designates STIGs as the official standard for hardening operating systems and applications that operate inside FedRAMP boundaries, making STIGS the default tool for system integrators, government contractors, and independent software vendors.

With this renewed interest in STIGs, it’s a great opportunity to learn STIG terminology and uses. MITRE has been leading the way in modernizing the creation and consumption of STIG guidance for many years now. This includes a tool, Vulcan, to simplify the creation and maintenance of STIG security guidance.

In our upcoming live webinar, Aaron Lippold, Chief Architect of MITRE Security Automation Framework (SAF) at MITRE, and Josh Bressers, VP of Security at Anchore, will discuss the rising importance of STIGs. Josh and Aaron will explain how STIGs are used in modern environments, and how you can leverage the new tooling to automate compliance. They will explain and demonstrate how practitioners and security professionals can approach STIG compliance to ensure project success.

Attendees will come away with an understanding of:

- What is a STIG guide and how to use it
- How to approach STIG compliance
- Why continuous cyber readiness is critical in today’s landscape

- The benefits of real time visibility within the SDLC

- How Anchore Enterprise supports STIG compliance

This session is part of an ongoing DoD software factory series where we explore innovation, insights, and security approaches that support national defense and cybersecurity.
