What is CMMC?
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a unified standard developed by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to ensure that contractors and suppliers within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) properly safeguard sensitive information — especially Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI).
CMMC establishes a tiered framework that measures an organization’s cybersecurity maturity through practices and processes. It integrates requirements from existing standards such as NIST SP 800-171, and FAR 52.204-21 into a single certification model.

CMMC Compliance – Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a U.S. Department of Defense framework designed to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) across the Defense Industrial Base. It applies to contractors and subcontractors that handle CUI or Federal Contract Information (FCI).
-
CMMC defines multiple maturity levels that reflect increasing cybersecurity requirements, ranging from foundational practices to advanced, optimized controls. The level required depends on contract type and the sensitivity of the information being handled.
-
CMMC requirements are being rolled into DoD contracting language over time. While not all contracts require certification today, many DoD solicitations will soon include CMMC requirements, making early preparation essential for future contract eligibility.
-
No. Seratos does not issue CMMC certifications or act as a certification assessor. We provide independent consulting support to help organizations with readiness assessments, control implementation, internal audits, and preparation for third-party assessments by authorised C3PAOs.
-
Seratos supports CMMC readiness through gap assessments, risk analysis, control implementation, documentation development, internal audit preparation, and roadmap planning. We help organizations understand requirements and prepare to engage with authorised assessment organizations.
-
Preparation timelines vary based on organizational maturity, existing cybersecurity controls, and the target CMMC level. Seratos helps clients define realistic timelines by assessing current posture, identifying gaps, and tailoring phased implementation plans to fit resources and schedules.
