Our Approach to CMMC Gap Analysis
1
Initial Consultation
Begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your current cybersecurity maturity level and the specifics of your needs to attain CMMC compliance. We discuss the security practices across the organization, the types of data the organization handles, and existing policies in place.
2
Holistic Gap Analysis
Conduct a detailed gap analysis for CMMC and lay down non-conformance with NIST SP 800-171 and other standards of CMMC. Scrutinize the system security plans (SSPs), policies, procedures, and security controls in place to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses without any gaps.
3
Reporting Detail
Prepare an in-depth detail report on the gaps identified and the associated risks and recommended remedies. It provides an ordered list of what steps to take next, placing a strong emphasis on the most important areas that impact CUI and the overall maturity of cybersecurity.
4
Remediation Planning
Detailed plans of action to be taken are developed in order to close identified gaps and ensure that they align with CMMC 2.0 requirements and elevate the overall level of security practices. This includes specific steps that must be taken, who should do so, and when they should be taken, meaning clearly providing a timeline for addressing both immediate and long-term security needs.
5
Implementation Support
Offering ongoing support and guidance while implementing remediation strategies that ensure the course of progress toward compliance is effective and efficient. Our experts help in the execution of the action plan by offering both technical and strategic advice for solving complex issues and easily integrating new security measures.
6
Pre-Assessment Readiness Review
This is a final review to ensure the completion of all remediation actions, which will make the organization ready for the official CMMC assessment by a certified third-party assessment organization. It includes a mock assessment exercise to simulate the CMMC audit and identify remaining issues and ensures readiness for certification.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a CMMC gap analysis?
A CMMC gap analysis is a comprehensive assessment that evaluates your organization’s current cybersecurity practices against the requirements of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0. This analysis identifies specific areas where your organization falls short of meeting the required CMMC standards, providing a clear roadmap for remediation. The goal is to help your organization understand its current compliance status, pinpoint gaps in security controls, and develop a plan to achieve full CMMC compliance.
What are the key components?
A CMMC gap assessment examines each aspect of your System Security Plans (SSPs), policies, procedures, and security controls in great detail. The outputs of a gap assessment typically include identification of deficiencies, graded objective determination of compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC standards, and a detailed report of findings with actionable prioritized remediation steps for any deficiencies identified.
What is the cost?
Prices for CMMC gap assessments are based on size and complexity. This shall include the number of systems, sensitivity of data, and any existing security controls. Contact us for a personalized quote based on your unique requirements.
What is the timeline for completing a CMMC gap assessment?
The timeline for a CMMC gap assessment really depends on where your organization is in its current cybersecurity maturity and the extent of required remediation. In general, an assessment process could take weeks up to a few months. We work with you to establish a realistic and efficient timeline tailored to your needs.
How can I conduct a gap assessment?
To get a better idea of where you stand you can download a self-assessment tool from the CMMC Information Institute. The tool helps you create a compliant cybersecurity program by streamlining your efforts to meet CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 requirements. Download it via the link here.
How are we to implement the recommendations from the CMMC gap assessment?
A CMMC gap assessment examines each aspect of your System Security Plans (SSPs), policies, procedures, and security controls in great detail. The outputs of a gap assessment typically include identification of deficiencies, graded objective determination of compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC standards, and a detailed report of findings with actionable prioritized remediation steps for any deficiencies identified.
What happens after the analysis has been completed?
After the assessment, remediation is conducted, then we carry out a pre-assessment readiness review. This final review will ensure that there are no gaps remaining and your organization is fully prepared for the official CMMC assessment by a Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO).
