Fulfilling New CMMC Requirements Takes More Than a Compliance Audit – Much More

CMMC Compliance

Ensure your company is prepared for the new DoD guidelines!

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a program intended to establish a uniform level of cybersecurity throughout the Defense Information Base (DIB) or Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain. The DIB is made up of more than 300,000 product manufacturers, systems integrators, and service providers.

The release of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) brings changes to the Department of Defense (DoD) Supply Chain for both contractors and subcontractors. As CMMC will be a requirement to do business with DoD, it is critical for DoD contractors to understand what CMMC means for their organizations and begin preparing now.

 

Sentinel360’s CMMC services program is designed to help clients understand DoD requirements, develop a strategy to achieve compliance in hybrid and cloud models, and execute to implementation and ongoing operations.

CMMC 2.0

Frequently asked questions.

What is CMMC?

The CMMC is a new way of doing business with the federal government. Once fully implemented, no existing or potential defense contractor will be allowed to view or bid on new contracts without certification at one of five maturity levels. The new certification is designed to verify that any Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Contractor can adequately protect Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). DIB contractors must prove compliance through a CMMC Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO) or risk losing any future business with the DOD.

What are the three CMMC Levels and the Requirements?

With the CMMC, DIB contractors must meet one of three maturity levels of data security maturity to earn bidding opportunities for future work with the DOD. The levels are: 

 

Level 1- Foundational
Level 2 – Advanced 
Level 3- Expert

 

Depending on criticality of organization mission, organizations might be required to conduct annual self-assessments and some will be required to conduct a government audit once every three (3) years.

 

And depending on your federal business strategy, broader revenue goals, current security capabilities, an organizationally aligned strategy, operating plan and program design may also be needed.

Why act now to comply with CMMC Requirements

Full implementation of the CMMC isn’t expected to happen until September 2025. Because there is no clear guide as to which types of contracts will require CMMC compliance when by what time, some may elect to delay until the last minute. But that could lead to missed revenue, contract termination, increased costs, or even fines because of poor or hasty business and security decisions. Successful DIB contractors are taking the time now to prepare, giving themselves the competitive edge with early certification, positioning themselves for future business with the federal government
