What is CMMC 2.0?

CMMC 2.0 is the DoD’s cybersecurity maturity model for contractors handling Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). It aligns practices with NIST standards and requires assessment appropriate to your level.

Level 1 — Foundational (FCI) Level 2 — Advanced (CUI / NIST 800-171) Level 3 — Expert (Selected / 800-172-informed)

Who is this for?

  • Prime & sub-contractors in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB)
  • Teams handling FCI/CUI that must align with CMMC 2.0
  • Leaders building repeatable policies, processes, and evidence

We deliver live training + templates + guided practice so your team can operate—and prove—compliance.

CMMC 2.0 Levels — Step-by-Step Progression

Level 1 — Foundational

FCI

Basic safeguarding of FCI with 17 practices aligned to FAR 52.204-21. Annual self-assessment expected.

  • Access control, secure config, vulnerability patch cadence
  • Vendor/remote access hygiene & basic logging
  • Policies: acceptable use, account mgmt, basic incident steps

Level 2 — Advanced

CUI / 800-171

Protects CUI via NIST SP 800-171 practices (110). Mix of self-assessment and third-party assessments per program.

  • Policies, SSP/POA&M, access governance, MFA, encryption
  • Incident response runbooks, awareness & training cadence
  • System security plan evidence and audit-ready artifacts

Level 3 — Expert

Selected / 800-172

For selected programs handling prioritized CUI. 800-172-informed enhanced practices; government assessment.

  • Advanced monitoring, segmentation, and response depth
  • Threat-driven validation & management reporting
  • Supply-chain controls and continuous improvement cycles

Frequently Asked Questions

Which CMMC level do we need?

+

It depends on whether you handle FCI or CUI and the contract requirements. We’ll map your data types, scope, and obligations to L1, L2, or L3 and recommend an action plan.

Do you provide templates and evidence guidance?

+

Yes. We include policy templates, SSP/POA&M structures, evidence lists, and review cadences so your team can implement and prove practices efficiently.

Are the sessions live or self-paced?

+

Training is 100% live online with instructors. We also provide supplemental materials and artifacts to reinforce implementation and evidence.

How fast can we begin?

+

Most organizations can begin within 2–4 weeks depending on cohort size and scheduling. Book a call to review current availability.

Note: CMMC requirements may evolve. We align training and artifacts to currently published practices and will highlight any changes that affect your program.
