Your 6-Step Path to CMMC Certification
-
ACTIVECYBER helps classify your data types and review contracts to determine the required CMMC level.
-
We map what systems, users, and cloud assets fall under compliance — and build the data flow and System Security Plan (SSP) required for audit.
-
Our team benchmarks your current posture against CMMC/NIST controls, flags gaps, and maintains and updates your SSP.
-
We prioritize what to fix and help execute — with real-time documentation and evidence gathering along the way.
-
Whether self-assessment or third-party audit, we support your team all the way through.
-
Stay compliant with updates, annual reviews, and technical guidance to keep your DoD eligibility intact.
case study: ANSER DOUBLES DOWN ON CMMC CERTIFICATIONS and ISO 27001
“ACTIVECYBER's guidance was instrumental in helping us achieve both ISO 27001 and CMMC certifications in lockstep—a complex undertaking that we absolutely could not have accomplished without their expertise. Their systematic approach through the ACTIVE Framework™ not only ensured we passed both audits on the first attempt, but also received a perfect assessment score on our CMMC Level 2 certification. With this, we built a comprehensive cybersecurity program that transformed how we handle CUI and sensitive national security data. The dual certification success has positioned ANSER as a trusted partner for the most demanding government contracts.”
