CMMC Compliance Services
We understand that the overwhelming majority of businesses contracting with the US Government are committed to seeing our great nation thrive for generations to come. The hard truth is that enemies of the United States target small businesses, particularly government contractors, aiming to steal, damage, or corrupt sensitive data. However, protecting data, creating policies, and implementing technical systems can be complex, time-consuming, and expensive for small businesses. These challenges can be frustrating and demoralizing when all you want to do is focus on your core operations.
MNS Group helps DoD contractors navigate the complexities of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). Our approach to implementing CMMC compliance is informed by our deep cybersecurity experience and our understanding of how businesses function. This comprehensive approach is NOT pencil-whipping boxes, but building a resilient infrastructure where DIB businesses thrive, and where CUI and FCI are protected. We collaborate with our clients to build solutions that are tailored to meet business goals and compliance requirements to keep our nation protected together.
Our unwavering commitment to compliance and CMMC allows you to make a real impact in defending our nation and securing your business.
We are here to help. By partnering with MNS Group, you can effectively thwart cyber threats and shield your business from malicious actors. Our expertise and dedication to compliance empower you to focus on your job, knowing that sensitive information is well protected.
Where ever you are in your compliance journey, we can help.
WHAT IS CMMC?
CMMC is a cybersecurity standards verification program based on NIST SP 800-171. US Department of Defense (DoD) Contractors are required to implement the 110 practices to prove that they have the cybersecurity and operational infrastructure to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI). The certification comes as a response to the theft of many billions of dollars in intellectual property from contractors working for and with the DoD due to insufficient cybersecurity.
CMMC LEVELS
The DoD created a tiered approach through CMMC that outlines the levels of base cybersecurity requirements.
Level 1- Foundational
Applies to all DoD contractors and subcontractors handling Federal Contract Information (FCI) based on the existing 17 controls in FAR 52.204-21
Certification type: The contractor will be required to conduct a self-assessment annually, with an affirmation from a senior company official that the organization is meeting the requirements (see False Claims Act).
Level 2- Advanced
Applies to all DoD contractors and subcontractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), CTI, or ITAR data and is based on 110 controls in NIST 800-171.
Certification type: For most organizations, a third-party assessment by an authorized CMMC C3PAO
Level 3- Expert
DoD contractors that handle CUI on DoD high-priority programs will include some of NIST 800-171 and is still being developed.
Certification type: Government tri-annual assessments
HOW CAN MY BUSINESS PREPARE TO BECOME CMMC COMPLIANT?
Once you identify which level your business needs to comply with, you can begin the process of conducting an internal analysis of your cybersecurity infrastructure by checking it against the CMMC framework. A vetted, proven third party, like MNS Group, is well-resourced to identify gaps, saving you time if you attempted to do so on your own as it may be outside of the core skill set of in-house staff. Utilizing a third party to implement a compliance process is a cost and time-effective option for many businesses that may not wish to drain their own resources.
