The Future of CMMC: What Government Contractors Need to Know

January 8, 2025

In recent years, the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) has been a hot topic in the defense contracting world, caught in a state of flux. However, as we approach 2025, significant changes are on the horizon. The CMMC framework is set to finalize in December of 2024, bringing with it a renewed focus on cybersecurity compliance for government contractors. Here’s why this development matters and how Rimstorm’s GovCon Enclave Solution can help you navigate these changes.

Why CMMC Matters Now More Than Ever

The Future of CMMC: What Government Contractors Need to KnowCMMC was designed to enhance the cybersecurity posture of the defense industrial base (DIB) by ensuring that contractors meet specific cybersecurity standards. For the past two years, the framework has been in a state of flux, leaving many contractors in limbo regarding compliance requirements. However, the finalization of the CMMC Program Rule signals a pivotal shift. Government contractors must now prepare for a more rigorous and defined set of cybersecurity standards that will impact their ability to secure and maintain contracts with the Department of Defense (DoD).
