Why CMMC matters now

If your contracts touch controlled unclassified information, CMMC 2.0 is no longer optional.

Step 1 — Scope your CUI

Define exactly where CUI lives. A smaller enclave means a smaller, cheaper assessment.

Step 2 — Gap assessment against NIST 800-171

Score all 110 controls honestly and produce a System Security Plan with a plan of action.

Step 3 — Remediate in priority order

Access control, audit logging, and incident response first — they carry the most assessment weight.

Step 4 — Evidence and continuous monitoring

Assessors want artifacts, not opinions. Automated logging and monthly reviews create the paper trail.

Next step: we run the gap assessment and give you a fixed-scope remediation roadmap.
