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].
