CMMC Overview

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 is a set of cybersecurity standards that must be followed by all Department of Defense (DoD) contractors and suppliers who handle sensitive unclassified information (CUI). The CMMC framework is designed to protect the defense supply chain from cyber threats and to ensure that contractors and suppliers are adhering to the appropriate cybersecurity practices and procedures.

CMMC 2.0 is an updated version of the original CMMC model, which was introduced in January 2020. The new version, released in November 2021, incorporates the latest cyber threats and risks and includes additional requirements and guidelines. The CMMC 2.0 framework consists of five levels of cybersecurity maturity, ranging from basic cybersecurity hygiene to advanced cybersecurity practices.

Each level of the CMMC 2.0 framework includes a set of practices and procedures that must be implemented and verified by an independent third-party auditor. The auditor will assess the organization's cybersecurity maturity level based on a set of criteria and provide a certification that confirms the organization's compliance with the relevant level of the CMMC framework.

CMMC 2.0 is based on the existing National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-171A, which outlines the requirements for protecting CUI. The CMMC 2.0 framework builds on this standard and provides additional guidance and requirements for protecting CUI.

Overall, CMMC 2.0 is an important initiative that aims to enhance the security and resilience of the defense supply chain. By implementing the appropriate cybersecurity practices and procedures, contractors and suppliers can ensure that they meet the necessary requirements for handling sensitive information and protect themselves from cyber threats.

CMMC 2.0 Levels

800-171A Levels

Level 1
Foundational

This level requires basic cybersecurity protocols deployed by most companies. To reach Level 1, firms need to implement 17 NIST SP 800-171 Rev2 controls.

Level 2

Advanced

Advanced Cyber Hygiene Practice: This level requires all 110 NIST SP 800-171 Rev2 controls to achieve Level 2 certification.

Level 3

Expert

This level includes advanced cybersecurity processes implemented, reviewed and updated across the enterprise. Companies need to implement all NIST 800-171 controls plus an additional subset of NIST 800-172 controls.

How to Achieve CMMC Compliance?

To achieve the CMMC 2.0 certification, you must:

Step 1: Determine the Appropriate Level

Organizations must first determine the appropriate level of the CMMC 2.0 framework based on the sensitivity of the information they handle.

Step 4: Document cybersecurity practices and procedures

Organizations must document their cybersecurity practices and procedures to demonstrate compliance with the CMMC 2.0 framework.

Step 2: Develop a Plan of Action

Organizations should develop a Plan of Action to address any gaps in their cybersecurity practices and procedures and implement the necessary controls.

Step 5: Conduct a self-assessment

Organizations may choose to conduct a self-assessment to identify any remaining gaps in their practices and procedures and ensure they are fully compliant with the CMMC 2.0 framework.

Step 3: Implement the practices and procedures

Once the Plan of Action is developed, organizations must implement the practices and procedures outlined in the framework.

Step 6. Undergo third-party/self assessment

Organizations must undergo a third-party assessment by an accredited and independent C3PAO to verify compliance with the selected level of the CMMC 2.0 framework.
