NIST Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)

CMMC is a U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) cybersecurity framework that requires defense contractors to meet specific cybersecurity practices based on NIST SP 800-171. It ensures that contractors in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) can safeguard controlled unclassified information (CUI) against evolving cyber threats.

FAQs

CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) is a U.S. Department of Defense framework that requires contractors to demonstrate cybersecurity maturity and protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

All contractors and subcontractors in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) who handle federal contract information (FCI) or CUI must meet CMMC requirements to be eligible for DoD contracts.

CMMC builds upon NIST SP 800-171 by adding certification requirements and maturity levels, ensuring that organizations not only implement security practices but maintain them over time.

CMMC 2.0 includes three levels: Level 1 (Foundational), Level 2 (Advanced, aligned with NIST SP 800-171), and Level 3 (Expert, based on a subset of NIST SP 800-172).

CMMC compliance is becoming a mandatory requirement in DoD contracts to protect sensitive defense information and reduce the risk of cyberattacks targeting the supply chain.

CMMC requirements are expected to begin appearing in new DoD contracts once the rulemaking process concludes, anticipated in late 2024 or 2025.

Contractors that fail to meet CMMC requirements will not be eligible to bid on or win DoD contracts that include cybersecurity obligations.

SAI360 supports contractors through control mapping, risk assessments, policy management, and audit readiness—helping ensure certification at the required CMMC level.
