Spectrum Control Achieves CMMC Level 2 Certification

Spectrum Control, a prominent name in signal protection, conditioning, and processing for defense and aerospace systems, has successfully achieved the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2. This certification sets a high standard established by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) for the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). By earning this designation, Spectrum Control demonstrates its unwavering commitment to safeguarding defense and aerospace data in line with NIST SP 800-171 regulations.

Understanding CMMC Level 2

The CMMC framework is critical for enhancing the cybersecurity resilience of the defense supply chain. It mandates that contractors implement adequate cybersecurity practices to shield sensitive information from cyber threats. By achieving Level 2 certification, Spectrum Control has positioned itself as a trusted partner capable of meeting the strict requirements needed to protect CUI.

Perfect Compliance Score

Following a thorough independent assessment by a CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), Spectrum Control received an impressive perfect compliance score. This result exceeded the baseline expectations for CMMC Level 2, with the company having no exceptions or open Plans of Action and Milestones (POAM). As a result, they are now well-prepared for projects requiring rigorous CUI protection under DFARS 252.204-7021.

Rich Sorelle, the CEO of Spectrum Control, highlighted the importance of this certification: "Cybersecurity is mission-critical. Our CMMC Level 2 certification ensures that every Spectrum Control solution is delivered to our customers through secure, compliant, and resilient systems. We are dedicated to continuous improvement to maintain ongoing compliance and resilience."
