Attention businesses: To remain eligible for Department of Defense (DoD) contracts, compliance with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is mandatory. Key deadlines for compliance are rapidly approaching:
- Pre-Award Requirement: You must meet the applicable CMMC level before being awarded any DoD contract that includes CMMC requirements.
- Effective Date: The rule implementing CMMC 2.0 is anticipated to take full effect by 2025, with some contracts already requiring compliance during the phased rollout in 2024.
