“If you’re planning on doing any work directly for the federal government, sign up with SensCy right now. [...] I can’t imagine going to the CMMC compliance from scratch. Never underestimate the ability of the government to overthink things.”
— Bill Henderson, President, Aircraft Precision Products, Ithaca
Michigan manufacturers work with SensCy, an Ann Arbor-based cybersecurity startup, to help:
Achieve regulatory compliance
Achieving cybersecurity compliance is no easy feat for manufacturers. Ask a fellow MMA member about their experience achieving Cybersecurity Maturity Modle Certification (CMMC) compliance, and they’ll shudder at the thought of it. Or take it from one of our star clients, Bill Henderson, President of Aircraft Precision Products in Ithaca, “I can’t imagine going to the CMMC compliance from scratch. Never underestimate the ability of the government to overthink things.” SensCy’s services and tools check the boxes on a significant portion of the requirements for compliance regulations like NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and CMMC. SensCy also provides ongoing counseling to help manufacturers reach compliance.
Protect supply chains
Bill Henderson’s advice: “Put yourself in the position of a customer who’s deciding on suppliers. They evaluate risk factors; they don’t want their supply chain disrupted because someone suddenly can’t ship parts because of a cyber issue.” SensCy provides manufacturers with the tools, resources, and support necessary to mitigate the risk of cyberattacks on their supply chains. For example, SensCy equips each client with an incident response plan to mitigate operational downtime and reputational damage from a potential cyberattack. At Senscy, we believe that investing in robust cybersecurity measures is not just a necessity for manufacturers; it is a strategic imperative to safeguard the future of manufacturing and ensure the resilience of global supply networks.
Shore up cyber gaps
Most manufacturers employ a small number of IT professionals who spend their time managing software licenses, fixing computer issues, and ensuring operational consistency - meaning they often lack the bandwidth to fully address the company’s cybersecurity. SensCy provides manufacturers with tools and resources, such as a dedicated virtual cybersecurity liaison to shore up these cyber gaps. Bill Henderson’s advice: “First off, have somebody who’s trained in Information Technology. But second, I think you really need to give that person resources to help them with their cybersecurity part of it, and that’s, for us, what SensCy brought to the table.”
