CMMC Model 2.0

We understand that no two contracts are alike as well as varying ways in which sub-contractors can be used. We will guide your team through the CMMC tiered model that addresses every business in DIB, from the fortune 500 companies down to small subcontractor agreements, to identify the proper scope for the appropriate level of CMMC audit or self-assessment. Each level of CMMC maturity has increasing expectations. The following illustrates the changes in the CMMC levels and their specific set of controls for each level.

Updated CMMC 2.0 Framework

The 32 CFR Final Rule will integrate the streamlined CMMC 2.0 model, which simplifies the original five levels into three:

Basic cyber hygiene for handling FCI (Federal Contracting Information). Level 1 is equivalent to all of the safeguarding requirements from FAR Clause 52.204-21.

Advanced security practices, closely aligned with NIST SP 800-171, for protecting CUI (Controlled Unclassified Information). Level 2 is equivalent to all of the security requirements in NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2.

Highly advanced practices for protecting critical national security information. Level 3 will be based on a subset of NIST SP 800-172 and more detailed information will be released at a later date. As of October 2024, this hasn’t been issued.

CMMC 2.0 implements tiered assessment requirements based on the sensitivity of the information shared with a contractor. Upon implementation of CMMC 2.0:

Contractors who do not handle information deemed critical to national security (Level 1 and a subset of Level 2) will be required to perform annual self-assessments against clearly articulated cybersecurity standards.

Contractors managing information critical to national security will be required to undergo CMMC Level 2 third-party assessments.

The highest priority, most critical defense programs (Level 3) will require government-led assessments.
