Maumee Pattern Collaborates with CIFT for Comprehensive Cybersecurity Assessment and Training Amid Growing Digital Threats

About

Maumee Pattern, located in Toledo, Ohio, specializes in the design and manufacturing of high-quality foundry patterns and molds that are essential for creating metal castings. This family-owned company, with over 110 years of history, works across a wide range of industries, customizing designs to meet even the most complex casting requirements.

The Challenge

Given the current landscape of cybersecurity threats, Maumee Pattern was focused on safeguarding their digital environment, recognizing existing gaps and the need for compliance. Company representatives asked about their options while exploring other potential opportunities through CIFT and decided to proceed with a full cybersecurity assessment and training.
The support we received through this program made it possible for us to take the next step toward CMMC compliance. The guidance and funding helped us strengthen our systems and protect the data our customers trust us with.
— Ryan Betz, CIO
