CMMC Gap Analysis

Depending on your organization’s current level of cybersecurity compliance and which CMMC level you are required to achieve, implementing CMMC 2.0 can be a daunting and overwhelming task.

But no matter your starting point, to have a clear and efficient path forward, the very first step has to be a deep and honest look at the current status of your organizations cybersecurity. Our CMMC Gap Assessment does exactly this: by performing a thorough analysis it determines the differences between the current status and CMMC requirements based on the CMMC Level you want to achieve. Fundamentally, this CMMC Gap Analysis is not different from the Cybersecurity Gap Analysis we perform against any of the other current national or international cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST SP 800-171, ISO 27001, SOC 2 etc.

CMMC Gap Analysis as the first step in becoming CMMC compliant

Without a CMMC Gap Assessment, it’s impossible to know what changes your organization needs to make before it meets compliance to the required CMMC Level. The result of this CMMC Gap Analysis as the first step and our report will provide you with a roadmap with the best course of action – on how the get you in line with CMMC requirements, how to get and keep your organization CMMC compliant.

For a general overview of the steps to compliance and time estimates see our flowchart about the CMMC certification process.
