CyberSheath, a leading provider of cybersecurity compliance services for the defense sector, has recently attained a significant milestone by successfully completing its own Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 assessment, achieving an impeccable score of 110. This achievement not only underscores the robustness of the company’s managed services but also serves as concrete evidence that its compliance methodologies align fully with the rigorous security requirements mandated for Department of Defense (DOD) contractors.
A unique aspect of CyberSheath’s strategy is its adherence to the principle of practicing what it preaches. The company uses the same managed cybersecurity solutions it provides to its client base within the defense industrial base (DIB). By subscribing to its own compliance-as-a-service offerings, CyberSheath continuously validates and fine-tunes its products, demonstrating their viability and efficacy in real-world conditions. This self-application of its security and compliance standards ensures CyberSheath remains in perpetual alignment with CMMC Level 2 certifiability, enabling it to offer battle-tested solutions that meet the exacting standards of DOD contracts.
Eric Noonan, CEO of CyberSheath, emphasized the deeper significance behind the company’s commitment: “Our commitment to compliance goes beyond helping clients. We hold ourselves to the same rigorous standards. By operating as a defense contractor and subscribing to our own managed services, we ensure that what we deliver is truly battle-tested. This CMMC audit is yet another proof point that our approach is effective and repeatable.”
The assessment itself was carried out by Cybersec Investments, an accredited C3PAO (CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization). Fernando Machado, Managing Principal and Chief Information Security Officer at Cybersec Investments, praised CyberSheath for its meticulous preparation and comprehensive documentation of security controls. Machado emphasized that the company’s firsthand demonstration of compliance provides compelling evidence of the effectiveness and reliability of its managed services, establishing a clear benchmark for other providers in the DIB.
CyberSheath’s comprehensive managed services package is designed as a turnkey solution to assist defense contractors in seamlessly achieving and maintaining compliance with essential standards such as NIST 800-171 and CMMC 2.0. Its managed services portfolio encompasses essential cybersecurity functions, including continuous monitoring, proactive vulnerability management, robust incident response mechanisms, and fully managed secure enclaves, specifically crafted to address the complex and evolving security needs of the defense industry.
With its successful self-assessment, CyberSheath has convincingly showcased its compliance-as-a-service model as not merely theoretical but practically validated. For defense contractors navigating the demanding path to certification, CyberSheath now stands as a proven partner, capable of significantly streamlining their journey to compliance through fully audit-ready managed solutions.
