CMMC Level 3 Implementation

Key Points:

• CMMC Levels: The CMMC model will encompass five maturity levels, with Level 3 being an advanced stage. Level 3 implementation is essential for all certified organizations seeking to enhance their cybersecurity posture.

• Compliance Requirements: Based on 48 CFR 52.204-21, Level 3 practices impose a set of foundational cybersecurity controls for contractor information systems. These controls are crucial for safeguarding Federal Contract Information (FCI) stored within these systems.

• Security Foundation: Level 3 practices enable organizations to establish a robust security foundation that goes beyond basic safeguarding requirements. This includes managing activities, implementing subnetworks, establishing incident response plans, and demonstrating resource allocation for practice management.

Throughout this 4 CPE training event, participants will focus on achieving the following objectives:

• Understand the CMMC Level 3 framework and its significance in enhancing cybersecurity.
• Familiarize themselves with the specific compliance requirements outlined in 48 CFR 52.204-21.
• Learn how to implement and manage Level 3 practices effectively within their organizations.
• Develop skills in incident response planning and resource allocation for practice management.
• Gain insights into advanced cybersecurity concepts and best practices for Level 3 implementation.

By attending this training event, participants will enhance their understanding of Level 3 practices, enabling them to establish a strong security foundation aligned with the CMMC model. This knowledge will empower organizations to protect FCI and improve their overall cybersecurity posture.
