Anticipated Timeline

On December 16, 2024, the Department of Defense (DoD) implemented the final rule for the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Program, codified under 32 CFR Part 170. This rule establishes the CMMC framework, aiming to enhance the cybersecurity posture of defense contractors by ensuring the protection of Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Expected to be completed by mid-to-late 2025, the next key milestone in this initiative is the finalization of CFR Rule 48, which will mandate CMMC compliance as a prerequisite for obtaining DoD contracts. Phase 1 of 48 CFR Part 204 rule will require contractors to conduct self-assessments for CMMC Level 1 and CMMC Level 2 compliance. These self-assessments will be a prerequisite for securing new DoD contracts and must be reported annually to the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS).
