Frequently Asked Questions

What is CMMC?

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) was created by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (OUSD) for Acquisition & Sustainment and was published in January 2020. The goal is to gain transparency into the security of DoD contractors and to protect itself from cybersecurity threats. It does so by defining clear technical requirements for contractors, subcontractors, or other organizations within the defense industrial base (DIB) that handle confidential unclassified information (CUI) or federal contract information (FCI).

What is the penalty for non-compliance with CMMC?

There are no penalties for non-compliance with CMMC specifically, but without a CMMC certification you cannot apply for a government contract, and failing to implement its baseline requirements means you are putting your customer’s data at risk.

Who needs to comply with CMMC?

CMMC certification is required for any defense industrial base (DIB) company which includes any contractors, subcontractors, or other organizations working for the Department of Defense (DoD).

What is unclassified information (CUI) or federal contract information (FCI)?

Unclassified information (CUI) is any government-created or owned information or that an entity creates or possesses for or on behalf of the Federal Government that requires safeguarding or dissemination controls.

Federal contract information (FCI) is defined as any information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Federal Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Federal Government.
