CMMC Readiness in Action: Achieving Compliance with the Tools you Already Have
Presented by Nucleus Security in partnership with Carahsoft
Overview
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is transforming how defense contractors protect controlled unclassified information (CUI) and federal contract information (FCI). But achieving and sustaining compliance doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch.
In this on-demand recording, Doug Drew, Senior Solutions Engineer at Nucleus Security, explores how defense contractors and subcontractors can reach CMMC compliance faster by maximizing the tools and processes they already have in place.
Co-hosted with Carahsoft Technology Corporation, this practical session breaks down CMMC Level 1–3 requirements, risk-based vulnerability management practices, and the steps to align your existing vulnerability management, asset inventory, and remediation workflows with CMMC controls.
