 CMMC Preparation Services



Becoming compliant with CMMC/NIST SP 800-171 is not easy. It is not quick. It is not cheap.

Cybersecurity is a risk management investment. Many small business defense contractors are taking 12-18 months to fully implement all of the requirements, technology, culture changes, practices and procedures in order to be ready for their assessment.

Delaying until all rulemaking is complete is a roll of the dice in a game you won't win. If you delay, you will be behind the curve, potentially losing competitive advantage, and the ability to do business with the DoD and many of the large prime contractors that are expecting/requiring that their subcontractors are compliant ASAP or they will no longer do business with you.

We team with our client's as trusted partners and advisors.

Risk-Based Approach

At KNC, we take a Risk-Based Approach. The general assessment principle we follow is that if documentation and evidence is nonexistent then the practices and processes are non-existent, and the internal control environment is ineffective.

What is the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)?

According to the DoD, the CMMC combines various cybersecurity standards and best practices and maps these controls and processes across several levels that range from basic cyber hygiene to advanced.

For a given CMMC level, the associated controls and processes, when implemented, will reduce risk against a specific set of cyber threats. The CMMC effort builds upon existing regulation (DFARS 252.204-7012) that is based on trust by adding a verification component with respect to cybersecurity requirements.

The goal is for CMMC to be cost-effective and affordable for small businesses to implement at the lower CMMC levels. Authorized and accredited CMMC Third Party Assessment Organizations (C3PAOs) will conduct assessments and issue CMMC certificates to Defense Industrial Base (DIB) companies at the appropriate level.
