Because CMMC is rooted in one of the most technically demanding federal standards, organizations need support that understands both the NIST 800-171 framework, and how assessors evaluate it.
We translate every requirement into plain language, map your environment against those expectations, establish your SPRS score, and lay out a prioritized roadmap for closing the gaps.
The official FAR clause lists 15 safeguards, but CMMC documentation often references 17 practices. Here is why:
CMMC inherited the DoD’s earlier mapping from the DFARS 252.204-21 “Basic Safeguarding” table, where two of the FAR requirements were split into multiple CMMC practice IDs during modeling. They are not additional requirements—just a structural carryover from the original DoD-to-NIST mapping exercise.
