Episode 20 - S2 - CMMC - The Basics Part 1 (Audio)

In this episode of Quality Hub Podcast, host Xavier Francis and Scott Dawson, President of Core Business Solutions, discuss the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). CMMC ensures companies handling government information have proper cybersecurity measures and evolved from DFARS and NIST standards. It has three levels: Level 1 (Foundational) for basic practices, Level 2 (Advanced) for handling more sensitive information with NIST SP-800-171 compliance and third-party assessments, and Level 3 (Expert) for highly sensitive projects with additional requirements and government audits. Companies need to check their contracts for CMMC requirements, with certification phased in during renewals. Small businesses in the defense sector must comply to maintain contract eligibility. The episode invites listeners to tune in next week for more details on CMMC's impact on businesses.
