CMMC Level 2
If you handle CUI, the biggest risk is not a single missing tool—it’s an unstructured environment with weak evidence. We help you scope, remediate, and maintain a defensible baseline.
Readiness and support only. We do not provide certification.
Level 2
CMMC Level 2 tends to feel overwhelming because it touches more than technology. It touches process, documentation, and the reality that people and vendors change. The contractor environments that succeed are the ones built around repeatable systems: identity that is enforced, devices that are visible, configurations that are standardized, and a documentation routine that stays current.
The fastest way to waste money is to treat Level 2 like a shopping list. Buying tools without scoping first often leads to unnecessary complexity, uncontrolled access, and “compliance theater” where policies exist but aren’t tied to real behavior.
Level 2 is usually about Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). That means the work starts by drawing a boundary around CUI systems and users. If you define scope too broadly, remediation becomes slow and expensive. If you define it too narrowly, you will miss key data paths (shared mailboxes, file shares, vendor portals) and discover gaps late.
We typically map CUI in three layers: storage locations (email, file shares, SaaS), transfer paths (who sends it and how), and access paths (remote access, vendor access, personal devices). Once you can map those, you can design a baseline that matches the real business.
For Level 2, “evidence” is not a binder. It is the ability to answer questions quickly: who has access, how devices are managed, what changed, and what your team does when something goes wrong. The easiest way to make evidence sustainable is to align it with daily operations: onboarding checklists, ticketing, access reviews, patch reporting, and backup/restore logs.
When evidence is operational, it stays current. When evidence is a separate “compliance project,” it decays.
Checklist
Use this checklist as a practical guide to prioritize work. The goal is not to fix everything at once. The goal is to reduce risk and increase clarity fast.
If you want the fastest starting point, request a risk review. We’ll help you figure out scope and the first remediation phase.
Services
We identify gaps and translate them into a remediation roadmap that is realistic for your team. The roadmap is organized by risk and effort, so you can make measurable progress instead of chasing every control at once.
When appropriate, we align the roadmap to NIST 800-171 expectations and your real environment—users, sites, vendors, and the applications you actually rely on.
We help implement and maintain key parts of the baseline: identity enforcement, endpoint visibility, email security, configuration baselines, and ongoing documentation support.
Monthly management is often the difference between "we were ready" and "we drifted." It keeps your environment consistent as devices and users change.

We’ll help you identify what’s in scope, what’s high risk, and what the next 30–90 days should look like.
