CMMC

Venevor gives you a profile for the CMMC level you are targeting, maps it to the NIST SP 800-171 practices behind it, and keeps the evidence an assessor will ask for.

The framework

What CMMC asks of you.

What it is

CMMC is the Department of Defense program for verifying that contractors protect Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). It has three levels: Level 1 covers basic safeguarding of FCI, Level 2 aligns with NIST SP 800-171, and Level 3 adds selected requirements from NIST SP 800-172. Depending on the level and the contract, the assessment is a self-assessment, a third-party assessment by a C3PAO, or a government-led assessment.

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification

Who needs it

  • Prime contractors and subcontractors in the defense industrial base
  • Organizations that store or process CUI
  • Suppliers preparing for a C3PAO assessment

1Levels

A profile for the level you need

Venevor has profiles for CMMC Levels 1, 2 and 3. Pick the one your contracts require, and readiness is measured against that level's practices.

2NIST SP 800-171

Level 2 practices mapped to NIST SP 800-171

Level 2 aligns with NIST SP 800-171, so one control can serve both. Venevor maps each check to every framework it supports, and evidence is collected once.

What it does

Shows which practices are verified by a live check and which rest on a person's assertion.

What it never does

Count an asserted practice as verified.

3Assessment

Ready for the assessor's questions

Assessors get a dedicated workspace with the evidence and its history. FedRAMP SSP and POA&M foundation exports give your team a structured starting point for those documents.

Capabilities

Built for CMMC.

  • Level 1 to 3 profiles

    Measure readiness against the level your contracts require.

  • Crosswalk to 800-171

    One check maps to CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 at the same time.

  • Live endpoint evidence

    Connectors such as Intune, Defender and CrowdStrike read endpoint state directly.

  • Gaps you can act on

    Requirements without evidence show as Gap or Unknown, never as fine.

  • Time-bound exceptions

    Exceptions carry an owner and an expiry date and never change an automated status.

  • OSCAL export

    Export assessment results in OSCAL format.

FAQ

CMMC questions.

Is Venevor a C3PAO?

No. Venevor is software. Level 2 certification assessments are performed by authorized C3PAOs, and Level 3 assessments by the government. Venevor helps you prepare and gives your assessor access to the evidence.

Which CMMC level should we target?

That depends on the information you handle and what your contracts require. Level 1 applies to FCI, and Levels 2 and 3 to CUI. Your contract language and contracting officer are the authority here.

Can we reuse the same work for NIST SP 800-171?

Yes. Level 2 aligns with NIST SP 800-171, and Venevor maps each check to both, so evidence is collected once.

Does Venevor produce our System Security Plan?

Venevor offers FedRAMP SSP and POA&M foundation exports. Treat them as a starting point that your team completes and reviews.
