What is CMMC2 what does it mean
ood News.....CMMC 1 is over it is being replaced with CMMC 2.0?
What is CMMC 2.0??
The good news is it is NIST800-171 something you are all very familiar with, having already fulfilled all its requirements previously.? Under NIST800-171 you self-certified.? The good news is you can still self-certify only you are required to report yourself and your score for level one certification. You do not have to hire a consultant we will get into greater detail later.?
Now for the Bad News according to the DOD and DFARS most companies have already agreed to comply with NIST800-171 with their current contracts and all new contracts will have an 800-171 requirement.? While they are not auditing them now, they will in the future, some time in 2023.? They will insist, in the near future, that you grade yourself and submit a POAM and SSP.? At a certain point they will insist that you submit a plan to get to level two.? They will also require that the CEO testifies in writing that they are in compliance, every year.?
So far the plan is to have the major contractors certify all their sub-contractors.? Their CEO will yearly have to certify that their subcontractors are in compliance.?
