CMMC Assessment

Event description

What Is a CMMC Assessment?

CMMC assessment is an official process to evaluate your cybersecurity maturity.

Hackers know that it’s much easier to steal sensitive information from government contractors than from the government’s own highly protected systems. That’s why the DoD now requires specific cybersecurity controls based on the sensitivity of the information you handle.

CMMC V2.0 (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) is a unifying standard for the implementation of cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). CMMC is designed to provide increased assurance to the Department of Defense (DoD) that a DIB organization can adequately protect sensitive unclassified information, accounting for information flow down to subcontractors in a multi-tier supply chain. 

As a C3PAO authorized by the CMMC Accreditation Body (Cyber AB), iPower is qualified to perform assessments for the CMMC framework. The certification process is intended to serve as a verification mechanism to ensure that DIB companies implement appropriate cybersecurity practices and processes to protect Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within their unclassified networks.

About IPower LLC

As a C3PAO authorized by the CMMC Accreditation Body (Cyber AB), iPower will lead official CMMC assessments as part of the certification process. iPower’s CEO and President, Deborah Hunt, is a Cyber-AB Provisional CMMC Lead Assessor and Certified CMMC Assessor (CCA).

CMMC V2.0 is comprised of 3 levels, starting with basic cyber hygiene that enables safeguarding of FCI and progressing up to safeguarding of CUI using advanced/progressive cybersecurity controls and techniques that protect against advanced persistent threats (APTs). During each assessment of the CMMC, our team will review tangible artifacts and conduct interviews to evaluate compliance with applicable CMMC requirements. Following completion of the assessment, iPower will provide an assessment report noting any findings and deficiencies and will report the results to the Cyber AB for review and approval.
