Obtaining and maintaining compliance can be confusing and complicated due to the evolving DoD directives, NIST 800-171 requirements, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). Understanding what level of compliance is required, while trying to get your staff up-to-speed on the IT/cybersecurity issues, risk impact, and compliance requirements is a daunting task for most businesses. Writing procedures, implementing technical controls, and documenting artifacts is a full-time job and businesses frequently do not have the bandwidth.
CMMC Pre-Assessment Process
Overview
iFORTRISS has developed and refined a proven CMMC Pre-Assessment Process that will get your business ready for a CMMC Assessment in 6 – 12 months depending on the size and complexity of your business. Our CMMC certified staff will deploy the processes and tools required for your business to become compliant by tailoring your implementation plan to meet your specific security and regulatory compliance requirements.
Phase I – Gap Analysis
iFORTRISS will review your current environment, IT policies & procedures, and determine how CUI flows through your environment. Our CMMC certified staff will develop and present a Final Report that includes the following:
- A FedRAMP GRC tool with an artifact repository & reporting dashboard
- CUI Asset Inventory & Classifications
- System Security Plan (SSP)
- CMMC Assessment & Certification Boundaries
- Security Assessment of all 14 domains, 110 requirements, and 320 security objectives

Phase II – POAM Remediation & GRC Evidence Compilation
iFORTRISS has flexible options for CMMC Advisory Services based on your organization’s needs. Some clients have knowledgeable IT and compliance personnel or work with an experienced NIST 800-171 compliant MSP, while other organizations have limited personnel resources and need more help. Either way, we provide the right amount of support you need.
Phase III – CMMC Enclave Development & Deployment
iFORTRISS will present any major hardware, firmware, or software upgrades required and obtain GCCH/Azure GovCloud licenses for all CUI users to establish Azure GovCloud Virtual Desktop Interface (VDI) Tenant. All enclave configurations, rules, policies will be set up and the enclave owner (IT Staff or MSP) will be trained to maintain the enclave.
Phase IV – CMMC Managed Security Services + Enclave Support
It is very important that an organization has either internal CMMC educated staff or external MSSP CMMC certified professionals that can maintain the CMMC Enclave and provide on-going GRC support. Our CCAs and CCPs are experienced with Enclave support in a CMMC environment, which is important when protecting CUI. Additionally, there are numerous CMMC compliance evidence documents that must be generated on a regular basis to maintain a cybersecure posture and for CMMC certification.
Also, one of our CMMC Certified Assessors (CCAs) will participate and support you in your official C3PAO Certification Assessment.
