CMMC

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)


Origin


The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) was created by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) in 2020 in response to increasing cybersecurity threats targeting the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). The framework was developed to ensure that defense contractors and subcontractors adequately protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI) in their systems. The DoD recognized that existing self-attestation methods were insufficient to safeguard sensitive defense-related data from sophisticated cyber attacks, particularly from nation-state adversaries, prompting the need for a more rigorous, third-party verification system.


Industry Value and Importance


CMMC certification has become essential for companies seeking to do business with the Department of Defense, as it is now a contractual requirement for defense contractors. The certification demonstrates that an organization has implemented appropriate cybersecurity practices and processes to protect sensitive government information, making it a competitive differentiator in the defense contracting marketplace. Beyond compliance, CMMC helps organizations improve their overall cybersecurity posture, reduce breach risks, and build trust with government clients and partners. The tiered certification structure allows companies to align their security investments with the sensitivity of the information they handle, making it both practical and scalable across the diverse defense supply chain.
