CMMC Level 1

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a framework developed by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to enhance the cybersecurity posture of contractors within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). It establishes five maturity levels, ranging from basic hygiene (Level 1) to advanced, proactive protections (Level 5), ensuring the safeguarding of Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). TekFive, currently assessed at CMMC Level 1, has demonstrated foundational cybersecurity practices and is actively pursuing an audit for Level 2, which involves implementing more robust processes to protect CUI. For government agencies, working with TekFive offers clear advantages: its Level 1 status ensures compliance with basic security requirements, while its progression toward Level 2 signals a commitment to heightened safeguards—providing agencies with a reliable partner dedicated to securing sensitive data amid evolving cyber threats.
