Get CMMC Certified With BEI
What exactly is CMMC?
CMMC is the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification that was created by the Department of Defense (DoD). Its purpose is to make sure third-party companies are using security standards. These standards ensure that contractors are keeping federal contract information and controlled unclassified information safe inside their networks.
Why is CMMC certification important?
The CMMC is all about security hygiene. The levels range from basic to advanced. The more appropriate security measures you implement, the more mature your security model is and the more secure the data is. While the DoD cannot make you implement a mature security model, they can stop doing business with you if you don’t meet the standards. Fortunately, we can help you so you don’t have to worry about missing the criteria.
Becoming CMMC certified
As with anything in life, you can’t just fumble your way through CMMC certification. There a lot of things to consider, such as your current security model, what it will take to get you where you need to be, the ability to assign resources to make changes and so forth. In a nutshell, it’ll take time and money away from your already stretched budget.
If your company relies on DoD contracts, then you already know that you must become certified. Understanding what to look for, preparing for what an auditor may find and having the resources you need to move along are all challenges. But one of the things at the front of your mind is likely the cost. BEI can help you address all of these concerns.)
The cost to become certified can be broken down into three major categories:
- Preparation costs: The cost is not fixed and will be different for everyone, but you can count on the cost rising the higher you go in the certification tier.
- Costs to make changes: Again, this will depend on how mature your security model already is, but if you’re lacking in some of the basics, the cost will be more to bring in more technology.
- Audit costs: Auditing costs are also not fixed, but they can be tens of thousands of dollars.
The option to do the work yourself and save money is tempting, but it’s also a big risk. Imagine spending months of hard work and some of your tightly allocated budget only to find out that you didn’t pass the test. Paying a third party to help may cost more upfront, but you will save in the end. Get it right the first time by partnering with BEI.
Benefits of hiring a CMMC compliance consulting company like BEI
The saying “you get what you pay for” is true, especially when it comes to what you invest your time and money in. If you try to cut corners, you won’t achieve the quality product you expect. Hiring a team of experts like BEI has its benefits:
- Adequate resources: You don’t need to hire for more experience and resources (and you don’t have to waste time bringing them up to speed). We have the resources you require, and you won’t pay for people you don’t need. Plus, once the project is finished, the additional costs go away. We scale with your demands so your solution is always fitting.
