BreakPoint Labs Celebrates Successful CMMC Level 2 Assessment
BreakPoint Labs, LLC, a prominent name in the cybersecurity field, has recently achieved a remarkable milestone by completing its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 assessment, achieving a 100% compliance rating. This accomplishment not only reflects the company's dedication to safeguarding sensitive government information but also underscores its commitment to maintaining the highest standards in cybersecurity practices.
The CMMC 2.0 framework, established by the Department of Defense (DoD), aims to bolster the security of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. This involves a thorough evaluation of an organization's cybersecurity practices based on the NIST Special Publication 800-171 standard, which is critical for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). During a week-long assessment, BreakPoint Labs successfully demonstrated compliance with all 110 security controls set forth by the framework.
William Glodek, the President of BreakPoint Labs, commented on this achievement, sharing that, "It's no secret that malicious cyber actors continue to target the DIB and the DoD's supply chain. As a trusted partner in DoD cyber missions, we take our responsibility to protect DoD information at the highest standard very seriously. We're excited that the assessment results affirm our ongoing commitment to effectively safeguard DoD information."
The successful assessment was facilitated by the reliable support of ATX Defense, which manages BreakPoint Labs' secure environment, ensuring both resilience and compliance. An independent third-party assessment organization (C3PAO), iPower, conducted a rigorous evaluation of BreakPoint Labs' cybersecurity practices to validate their adherence to CMMC 2.0 requirements. This extensive process is instrumental in ensuring the operational integrity and security of BreakPoint's services.
The significance of BreakPoint Labs' achievement lies not just in their certification, but in their mission alignment to aid DoD mission owners in predicting, mitigating, and responding to cyber threats. As the landscape of regulations continues to evolve, the company remains steadfast in advancing cybersecurity best practices, thereby securing critical assets for the nation.
In a broader context, the CMMC framework represents a critical shift in how defense contractors must approach cybersecurity. With the frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks increasing, the adherence to CMMC standards is becoming imperative for contractors looking to engage with the DoD.
As part of its mission, BreakPoint Labs is dedicated to delivering sustainable, measurable, and effective cybersecurity operations supported by a team of experienced professionals. With certifications in CMMI® for Services (CMMI-SVC) Level 3, ISO 9001:2015, and ISO 27001:2022, the company is well-equipped to handle the diverse challenges faced within the cybersecurity domain.
