Stop Guessing About CMMC - Start Understanding It
Most CMMC tools just tell you what you're missing. We tell you why it matters and how to fix it. Here's everything about CMMC Level 1 and 2 explained in plain English.
CMMC in 30 Seconds: It's like a security clearance for your computer systems. The Department of Defense created it because contractors kept getting hacked. Now you need to prove your cybersecurity is strong enough to protect government information to bid on defense contracts.
Two Levels: Level 1 protects basic contract information (17 practices, self-assessment only, $10,000-$50K). Level 2 protects sensitive government data (110 practices, eventual third-party assessment, $50K-$150K+).
Which Do You Need? Check your contract for DFARS 252.204-7012 clause or look for "CUI" markings on documents. If you see these, you need Level 2. If not, you likely need Level 1. When in doubt, ask your contracting officer.
Why Most CMMC Tools Don't Actually Help
Here's the problem with most CMMC assessment tools: they're like getting a medical diagnosis from a computer that just tells you "something's wrong" but doesn't explain what it means or how to fix it.
That's why we built our tool differently. We don't just tell you what's wrong - we teach you why it matters and exactly how to fix it.

Taking an assessment is like getting a diagnosis - it tells you what's wrong, but it doesn't fix the problem. Knowing what needs to be done and actually getting it done are two completely different challenges.
That's where most contractors get stuck. They take an assessment, get overwhelmed by the results, and either:
- Do nothing and hope the CMMC requirements go away (they won't)
- Try to figure it out themselves and waste months going in circles
- Hire expensive consultants who charge $200-$300 per hour and drag the process out for months
