Calls for a certified baseline of cybersecurity seem to increase with every cyberattack. And the recent ransomware attack that shut down the East Coast s largest fuel pipeline, Colonial Pipeline, is no exception.
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification program is one of several Defense Department efforts to improve both its own cyber defenses and those of its industry partners. CMMC has been touted as a potential standard that could expand beyond the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) to cover all government contractors.

The program sets out five maturity models applicable to defense industrial base contractors based on the level of sensitivity of information stored in their systems. Under the program, obtaining a certification of compliance at the appropriate risk level is an allowable cost. However, the extent to which contractors may have to dig into their own pockets to obtain certification is a running concern so much so that Kathleen Hicks, the deputy secretary of defense, ordered a review of the program in March. ....
