Xenith Solutions Achieves CMMC Level 2 Certification

Xenith Solutions, a distinguished Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), has made significant strides toward enhancing its capabilities in the defense sector by achieving Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2. This certification is not merely a compliance measure; it signals a robust commitment to protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and delivering secure solutions to its clients in the Department of War (DoW) and the broader defense community.

Transitioning from Subcontractor to Prime Contractor

This pivotal certification marks a crucial step in Xenith's strategic evolution from primarily acting as a subcontractor to taking on prime contracting roles in high-impact defense programs. In an increasingly complex cybersecurity landscape, this transition is vital. The achievement underscores Xenith's implementation of stringent cybersecurity practices that comply with the NIST SP 800-171 standards. As potential threats loom, ensuring robust cybersecurity measures has become a cornerstone of operational integrity in sensitive environments.

According to Lee Shabe, the CEO of Xenith Solutions, achieving CMMC Level 2 is not just about compliance; it reflects the company's ethos and future direction. Shabe emphasized trusts as the cornerstone of their mission. “Achieving CMMC Level 2 demonstrates we are ready to lead; protecting sensitive data, enabling mission success, and stepping forward as a prime contractor in the most demanding environments,” he stated.

Aligning Strategies with Defense Priorities

Xenith Solutions is reshaping its business model to focus on mission-driven innovation across various domains, including cybersecurity, data engineering, and advanced software systems. As the DoW places greater emphasis on cybersecurity and supply chain integrity, this certification not only strengthens Xenith’s credibility but also positions the firm favorably within the defense contracting ecosystem.

Mark Coleman, the Chief Growth Officer at Xenith Solutions, highlighted the importance of this certification for the company's growth strategy. “CMMC Level 2 is a key enabler of our growth strategy,” Coleman remarked. “It allows us to pursue and win prime opportunities where cybersecurity is not just a requirement, but a discriminator.”

With this foundation, Xenith is poised to take on more significant responsibilities, delivering secure and scalable solutions that meet the evolving mission demands of the defense sector.

Commitment to Mission-Driven Innovation

Xenith’s recent certification enhances its ability to support vital mission areas, including cyber operations and secure distributed systems. The company has made substantial investments in state-of-the-art secure architectures and Day-to-day operations centered around Zero Trust principles, ensuring that they remain ahead of evolving threats.

As part of its strategy, Xenith will continue to invest in advanced capabilities and certifications, aiming to adapt to and overcome the latest challenges facing national security.
