The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) requirement for organizations working in the defense industrial base (DIB) is no different.

Of course, what I’m referring to is the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). Maybe you’re already familiar with the acronym and heard that the DoD recently pushed out the massive update, CMMC 2.0.
