Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Compliance & Certification Services
What is CMMC?
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a structured cybersecurity framework developed by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) to safeguard sensitive defense information shared with contractors and suppliers. Its primary goal is to ensure organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI) maintain robust cybersecurity practices to protect against evolving threats.
CMMC blends existing best practices from widely recognized standards, including NIST SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-53, and ISO frameworks, presenting them as clearly defined maturity levels. By achieving the required CMMC maturity level, companies demonstrate their capability to manage and mitigate cybersecurity risks effectively.
