The military’s contractor cyber standards are officially here

" The official release of the standard means contractors will now need to pay a CMMC-certified assessor to physically inspect their operations to ensure they comply with one of the five levels. In the future, once CMMC begins appearing in RFIs and actual solicitations, if a contractor doesn't meet the contract's requisite level under the framework, they won't be able to bid for the work."

"With 2019 behind us, it's time to think about fresh starts, whether that means small changes or a complete life overhaul. For many people, finding a new or better job will be a top resolution.

If that's your mission for the new year, it's a good time to be on the job market. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' most recent jobs report, the national unemployment rate is 3.6 percent, just a bit higher than the 50-year low of 3.5% seen in September 2019.

College graduates, especially, will see a strong boost in their job prospects. According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, employers plan to hire 5.8 percent more members from the Class of 2020 than from the previous graduating cohort.

But your luck of finding work depends largely on location. To help you with the job hunt, WalletHub compared more than 180 U.S. cities across 31 key indicators of job-market strength. They range from job opportunities to employment growth to monthly average starting salary. Read on for our findings, additional insight from our panel of experts and a full description of our methodology.
