CMMC Compliance for Nonprofit Organizations

Government-contracting nonprofits face the same CMMC requirements as defense contractors.

Complex Requirements

CMMC Level 2 requires implementation of 110 NIST 800-171 security controls. Understanding and implementing these controls requires specialized expertise.

CUI Handling Complexity

Identifying, protecting, and managing Controlled Unclassified Information requires specific technical and procedural controls that most nonprofits don't have.

Assessment Preparation

CMMC Level 2 requires third-party assessment. Preparing for assessment means having every control implemented, documented, and evidenced.

Cost of Compliance

CMMC compliance is expensive. Nonprofits need cost-effective approaches that achieve compliance without breaking limited budgets.
