In this episode of the Cuick 10 Podcast, Derek White, Chief Operating Officer of Cuick Trac, is joined by Rachel Bassford, CUI Consultant at DEFCERT, to explore how organizations should approach identifying Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
Rachel explains why companies often jump straight into technology decisions without fully understanding their scope—and how that leads to wasted time, unnecessary cost, and increased risk.
