Preparing for the CMMC Requirement

Between the fall of 2020 through 2025, all contractors and suppliers wishing to do business with the Department of Defense (“DoD”) will need to be certified to a newly established unified cybersecurity model. The new requirement, known as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (“CMMC”), combines various cybersecurity standards and best practices to measure the maturity of an organization’s cybersecurity practices and processes against a fixed set of capabilities. Requirements will differ by contract type and services being performed by the prime and/or sub-contractors.

Join professionals from Cherry Bekaert & Unanet on June 23rd for a webinar where we will explain the CMMC and the current status of the program as well as what contractors can do now to start preparing for the new certification.
