The DoD (Department of Defense) has scheduled the release of the updated CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Module Certification) regulation and the start of formal CMMC certification requirements in DoD contracts for 2023. Any manufacturer engaged in DoD contracts or seeking to obtain DoD contracts must comply with these regulations. In order to assist Delaware manufactures to become aware of the regulations and new changes to the regulation, DEMEP is co- sponsoring a series of webinars designed to familiarize manufacturers with the CMMC regulations. These sessions will provide you timely information how CMMC will impact your businesses and how you can prepare.

CMMC Assessments – What to Expect

November 16, 2023

Time: 2-3PM EST

To become CMMC Level 2 certified, you’ll need to pass a CMMC assessment by a 3rd-party assessment company called a C3PAO. CMMC assessments are highly detailed and require demonstrable evidence that you meet each of the NIST SP 800-171 controls. In order to be certified, all 320 control objectives must be met. In this session we’ll be pulling back the curtain on a CMMC assessment. We’ll be uncovering important details such as:

  • How is a CMMC assessment conducted and who will need to participate?
  • What objective evidence will the assessor look for?
  • How long will a CMMC assessment take and what will it cost?
  • How should you choose your C3PAO to conduct the assessment?
  • Who will make up the CMMC assessment team?

Join us as we peek into the details of a CMMC assessment to help you be well prepared.
