Decoding CMMC: Navigating Levels 1, 2, and 3

This podcast breaks down the complexities of the Department of Defense's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) framework. We delve into the fundamental differences between Level 1's basic safeguarding requirements, Level 2's alignment with NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2, and Level 3's enhanced security based on NIST SP 800-172 and government assessment. Understand the distinct security requirements, assessment processes (self-assessment vs. certification by C3PAOs or DIBCAC), and prerequisites for each level to ensure your organization can confidently navigate the CMMC landscape.
