An Exclusive Complimentary Event:
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 Paradigm – What should I do, when and how?
Since January 2018, the Defense Department (and now other agencies) has required prime contractors and subcontractors at all tiers to implement NIST SP 800-171, “Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations.” Between January 2018 and November 2021, the Defense Department issued numerous guidance memoranda regarding NIST-171 and set up an arrangement with the now the Cyber Accreditation Board. The Cyber AB developed a “CMMC ecosystem” derived from NIST-171 and related NIST guidance in order to identify NIST-171 cybersecurity objectives intended for contractors and subcontractors who handle, create or store “controlled unclassified information” or CUI. The Defense Department introduced CMMC 2.0 through a Proposed Rulemaking published November 4, 2021. DoD did not pause compliance with FAR 52.204-21 or DFARS 252.204-7012.
Your company’s level of CMMC 2.0 “cyber hygiene” directly impacts your eligibility to contract or subcontract with the Defense Department (and likely non-DoD agencies such as the GSA and the DHS) and your competitive posture anywhere in the DoD supply or service chain.
