Find out if your organization needs CMMC certification in under 5 minutes
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a cybersecurity framework developed by the Department of Defense to protect sensitive defense information.
CMMC combines various cybersecurity standards into a unified framework with five maturity levels, requiring contractors to implement specific practices to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
Unlike previous frameworks, CMMC requires third-party assessment and certification - organizations cannot self-attest to compliance.
Key Requirement: Any organization handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as part of a DoD contract needs CMMC certification.
Increasing cyber attacks from nation-state actors targeting sensitive defense information and intellectual property.
Self-certification under DFARS 252.204-7012 lacked verification, leading to inconsistent cybersecurity implementations.
Ensures every organization maintains appropriate cybersecurity standards across the defense supply chain.
NIST Special Publication 800-171 provides guidelines for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and serves as the foundation for CMMC Level 2 requirements.
