Maximus (MMS) has achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Level 2, demonstrating its ability to secure national defense data and meet Department of Defense cyber mandates. The company underwent a rigorous certification process by a Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization.

Maximus (NYSE: MMS), a leading technology company and provider of government services, has achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2. This certification confirms Maximus's ability to secure national defense data and meet stringent Department of Defense (DoD) cyber mandates. The company secured this certification through a rigorous process conducted by a Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO) [1].

CMMC is a DoD-sanctioned program designed to assess and enhance the cybersecurity posture of defense contractors and subcontractors, particularly those handling sensitive unclassified information. The 2.0 program streamlines requirements and aligns with widely accepted National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) cybersecurity standards. With CMMC Level 2 already secured, programs supported by Maximus avoid lengthy Authorization to Operate (ATO) delays, accelerating timelines and reducing risk at startup [1].

The certification validates Maximus's enhanced cybersecurity posture as a defense contractor and positions the company to compete effectively across the federal contracting landscape. The achievement underscores Maximus's commitment to delivering secure and reliable technology solutions to government agencies [1].
