What is CMMC?
The CMMC model possesses three levels. Each level consists of practices and processes as well as those specified in lower levels.
In addition to assessing a company’s implementation of cybersecurity practices, the CMMC will also assess the company’s institutionalization of cybersecurity processes.
We are closely following the developments with the governing body and help prepare for future CMMC based contracts. Check out our dedicated CMMC page for updates.
