AustCyber factsheet: ‘United States Government’s Cyber Security Maturity Model Certification’

A digital and print-ready resource containing information on The Cyber Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). 

In January 2020, the US Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment introduced the CMMC. It is the next evolutionary step for the US Department of Defence (DoD), from the previous Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation (DFAR) requirements.

The CMMC will become the standard requirement for suppliers to operate within the US DoD acquisition and procurement process. All companies supplying to DoD projects, sustainment and operations must become certified and it will be a ‘go, no-go’ process where suppliers need to be certified before commencing supply.
