The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 is a comprehensive framework that aims to protect the controlled unclassified information (CUI) of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) from frequent and increasingly complex cyberattacks. Failure to meet the controls within the CMMC 2.0 standard and gain a certification can eliminate your ability as a firm to be awarded a DoD contract.
Implementing CMMC 2.0 is not only a matter of compliance, but also a matter of competitive advantage and national security. By meeting these requirements, contractors can demonstrate their commitment to cybersecurity, increase their trustworthiness, and gain access to more DoD contracts. However, implementing CMMC 2.0 can also pose significant challenges, especially for small to medium-sized businesses that may lack the resources, expertise, or time to meet the requirements. This is why partnering with an expert to implement CMMC 2.0 is a smart and strategic decision. An expert can help you to:
