How We Help Prepare You for CMMC
Our compliance solution gets you prepared in 3 steps:
1. CMMC Assessment
We perform a detailed assessment of your current network and compare it with the cyber security controls required in NIST SP 800-171 plus other controls. This process reveals your compliance “gaps” and what you need to do to prepare for CMMC.
2. SSP & PO&AM
Based on the Gap Analysis, we prepare a System Security Plan (SSP) & Plan-of-Action & Milestones (PO&AM) providing documented evidence for you to show the DoD or your Prime that you’re on your way towards compliance.
3. Remediation
The items called out in the PO&AM are addressed. Depending on the current state of your IT systems, this can be as simple as implementing multi-factor authentication or as complex as refreshing an entire aging infrastructure.
