The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification 2.0 (CMMC 2.0) release now has Organizations Seeking Certification (OSCs) preparing for their CMMC Level 2 certification. Many OSCs seek assistance from Registered Provider Organizations (RPOs) and CMMC Third-Party Assessor Organizations (C3PAOs) to help prepare, while others feel they are ready for their certification assessments. To be ready for CMMC, folks should know the latest information on CMMC, including when certifications will begin:
• Three Levels to CMMC 2.0
• Certification Timeline
• Common Pitfalls
Additionally, C3PAOs are receiving many questions about managed service providers (MSPs) and cloud service providers (CSPs). Outsourcing IT or cybersecurity services to a third-party provider can provide quality services that a company cannot afford with an on-premises solution and for a lower overall cost. Outsourcing to an MSP can provide significant cost savings for OSCs.
• Benefits of using an MSP or CSP
• Is the MSP part of the assessment process
• What level of certification does the MSP require
Finally, what should OSCs be doing now to prepare for CMMC.
• Prepare on your own
• Seek assistance; the RPO route
• Schedule with a C3PAO now
