Calculating a self-assessment score is a fundamental part of complying with DoD cyber regulations. Unfortunately, Project Spectrum, the resource that DoD recommends more than any other no longer calculates an “SPRS score”. In this episode we briefly explain the requirement to self-assessment, the basics of calculating a score, and a little-known tool from DoD that can help.
