Cybersecurity: Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and Pathfinders

Abstract

Develop Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) framework that incorporates multiple cybersecurity standards and references into a unified standard that encompasses both the progression of capabilities and controls as well as the institutionalization of processes to secure Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) sector. Conduct pathfinders and implement 3rd party regulator and CMMC assessment organizations under a governance structure. Conduct pathfinders to assess the feasibility and efficacy of employing emerging commercial services/tools/platforms that provide insights into cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities that are relevant to the DIB sector and the DoD supply chain. Partner with the DIB sector to demonstrate cost-effective and scalable cybersecurity services that augment and/or enhance existing commercial capabilities and services. Focus on cybersecurity services for small-to-medium sized DIB companies that are critical to the DoD supply chain but lack sufficient cybersecurity capabilities to protect CUI. .
