Nortech has achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 certification. This certification signals to prime contractors and Department of Defense partners that Nortech is a trusted, cyber-mature supplier. CMMC Level 2 demonstrates our serious commitment to data protection and validates Nortech meets all 110 C3PAO-verified security requirements in NIST SP 800-171.
Of the estimated 200k organizations expected to comply with CMMC, Nortech achieved certification with a perfect score and is among the first 450 organizations to become certified.
CMMC Level 2 establishes a higher standard of cybersecurity practices required to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). This level involves implementing security requirements across 14 domains established in NIST SP 800-171 and requires thorough documentation of all processes, procedures, and policies, ensuring that organizations maintain robust defenses against cyber threats. It signifies that an organization has demonstrated compliance through a thorough third-party assessment, confirming that proper safeguards are in place to mitigate risks. Achieving CMMC Level 2 is essential for contractors working within the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain, as it reflects a critical commitment to upholding national security through advanced cyber hygiene practices.
For our partners in the defense industrial base and other regulated markets, this certification is a key differentiator and a testament to our robust security posture.
