The Department of War (DoW) began implementation of a landmark cybersecurity program in November 2025 to better protect sensitive information across the U.S. defense industrial base called the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program.
CMMC establishes a mandatory framework to ensure that thousands of companies contracting with the DoW have verified cybersecurity measures in place to protect the DoW data they handle.
