Netwrix helps you comply with CMMC
About CMMC
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a framework established by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to ensure robust cybersecurity practices across the defense industrial base (DIB). It is designed to protect sensitive information such as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI) from cybersecurity threats.
Levels of Maturity
CMMC consists of multiple levels, ranging from foundational to advanced, each with increasing requirements for cybersecurity controls and practices.
Level 1
Basic cybersecurity hygiene, focusing on safeguarding Federal Contract Information (FCI)
Level 2
Advanced practices aligned with NIST SP 800-171, protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
Level 3
Expert level, intended for handling highly sensitive Department of Defense (DoD) projects
Key Takeaways
Knowing the basics of CMMC brings organizations one step closer to achieving regulatory compliance.
- Purpose: Enhancing the cybersecurity posture of organizations handling sensitive DoD information. Ensuring compliance with federal cybersecurity requirements to prevent data breaches and cyberattacks.
- Alignment: The framework incorporates standards from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), particularly NIST SP 800-171 and SP 800-172, with additional practices tailored to the DoD's requirements.
- Scope: Applies to all contractors and subcontractors in the DoD supply chain. Covers a wide range of cybersecurity domains, including access control, incident response, and system security.
- Benefits: Enhancing the security of sensitive information shared within the defense ecosystem. Standardizing cybersecurity practices across the DIB. Building trust between the DoD and its contractors.
