What is CMMC?

Learn more about CMMC and the DoD’s newly mandated compliance and verification framework.

CMMC framework is designed to adequately protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and assess and enhance the security posture of data located on your servers.
CMMC will require companies to have the certification to match the level required on their contract prior to it being awarded.
The majority of the practices (110 of 171) originate from the safeguarding requirements and security requirements specified in FAR Clause 52.204-21 and DFARS Clause 252.204-7012, respectively.
