Ask the Assessor

Wednesday, April 19th
2:00PM - 3:00PM ET

CMMC 2.0 will require organizations that are seeking contracts that require a CMMC Level 2 certification to seek a once every 3 year Certified 3rd Party Assessment of their compliance to NIST 800-171 r2 controls. These assessments will be completed by C3PAO (Certified 3rd Party Assessment Organization). It won't be an easy and quick process.

If you have questions about how assessments will be conducted, what information you will need to provide, or anything else, join us and Timothy Fawcett of Guernsey and members of his team to answer your questions about CMMC and the assessment at our upcoming webinar on Wednesday, April 19th at 2PM ET. 

Be sure to ask and submit your questions when you register for the webinar!
