WE CAN HELP YOU GET CERTIFIED

Ignite Security specializes in defense industry cybersecurity, assessments, compliance, and certification.

If your organization is bidding on DoD work, or is included in the supply chain for a contractor that does business with the DoD, you have likely already noticed changes in mandatory compliance requirements.

The DoD has set a deadline of 2026 for all defense contractors, sub contractors, and supply chain vendors to be CMMC compliant.

THE CMMC

The CMMC is a cybersecurity framework introduced by the US Department of Defense (DoD) in January of 2020. Its purpose is to standardize cybersecurity preparedness for many organizations which do business with DoD, either directly or indirectly - including Canadian businesses.

WHEN TO START?

The best time to start is now. Although full use of the CMMC framework is not anticipated until early 2026, the DoD is already including CMMC specifications in its procurement processes.

SECURITY YOU CAN FEEL GOOD ABOUT

Our company required CMMC but did not have the IT Security expertise in-house so we didn't know where to start. Ignite Security stepped in and provided us the guidance and project planning that we required. They helped set us up with a roadmap to successful compliance. Ignite Security also aided us with a successful execution of the roadmap and in identifying how CMMC frameworks applied to our enterprise architecture, and in-house developed applications. The engagement was immersive as the team ensured we were actively engaged throughout the discovery, planning, strategy, roadmap, and execution. Above all Ignite Security ensured we understood all aspects of the process and made us much more comfortable with how to get to full CMMC compliance.
