DIB Organizations Continue CMMC Efforts Despite Phase 2 Pause

Most defense industrial base (DIB) organizations are continuing toward Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) or have already achieved Level 2 certification despite the Defense Department’s (DOD) temporary pause of Phase 2 implementation, according to the third annual DIB cyber report from Redspin. CMMC is a DOD regulatory framework that verifies defense contractors and subcontractors have implemented required cybersecurity standards to protect sensitive government information.
