The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a new framework established by the Department of Defense (DOD) to enhance the cybersecurity posture of organizations working with the DOD. CMMC consists of different maturity levels, with Level 1 being the basic level that all contractors must adhere to. Achieving CMMC Level 1 compliance is crucial for organizations looking to secure DOD contract awards. The good news is you can immediately self certify to continue receiving contract awards. You can then begin working on level 2, which requires more specific guideance and possibly instruction.

Organizations that fail to meet the CMMC Level 1 requirements risk losing out on DOD contract opportunities, as compliance with the framework is now a prerequisite for securing DOD contracts. By understanding the requirements of CMMC Level 1 and implementing the necessary controls, organizations can position themselves as trusted partners for the DOD and enhance their chances of winning contract awards.
