It’s so easy with CyberOne

Federal contractor or subcontractor? Are you currently exploring, or getting lost among the CMMC Certification landscape?

Today, we provide a step-by-step guide, and, affordable solution for each step in the process.

Who’s (Whose?) on CMMC First?

Let’s begin with the landscape…

Who requires and who needs CMMC Certification?

How do we get it?

How do we maintain it?

How do we build a budget for it?

What is the CMMC required NIST 800–171 Control Self Assessment and SSP for SPRS?

WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, HOW!

Who’s asking? Not only DoD Contracts…

It started with the DoD, but, like a virus (!), it quickly grew. Earlier in 2020, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is already including CMMC in its contract process. GSA is the latest to introduce CMMC language into its contract process. GSA notes it reserves the right to require CMMC in its contracts, based upon the contract and security needs.

Who responds? Prime and Subcontractors, and so on…

DIB’s and all subcontractors are required to be CMMC certified. This also includes the completion of the NIST 800–171 Self Assessment and a Control Mapped SSP. These must be submitted (with score) and displayed in the SPRS (Supplier Performance Risk System). “Quick tip”: It’s pronounced “Spurs” in the industry! The more you know…
