WHAT IS THE CMMC CERTIFICATION?

The Department of Defense (DoD) of the United States is taking action to secure
critical data that companies receive or create in the performance of DoD
contracts. Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is highly sought by our
adversaries to steal sensitive US defense-related technical information. This
allows them to match and potentially defeat our war-fighting capabilities at
pennies on the dollar. Hundreds of billions of dollars of CUI are exfiltrated
each year.

The defense industrial base comprises hundreds of thousands of companies that
now must meet current cybersecurity and compliance requirements and become
compliant with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) to continue
the ability to work on DoD contracts. In 2020, DoD established the CMMC
Accreditation Body to develop and manage the training and certification
ecosystem. CMMC certification requires the industry to satisfy all CUI security
requirements and controls including all CMMC practices and assessment
objectives. An independent CMMC Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO) must
assess and certify compliance.  Assessment teams consist of Certified CMMC
Assessors (CCA) and Certified CMMC Professionals (CCP). The CMMC program is
nearing a voluntary certification period and may create a significant
competitive advantage for early adopters.


THE CYBERSECURITY MATURITY MODEL CERTIFICATION & CERTIFIED CMMC PROFESSIONAL
COURSE

The credentials of the CMMC Certified Professional (CCP) are in high demand and
the requirements and evidence are highly complex and detailed. This course walks
participants through the basic principles for performing an assessment,
completing the documentation required for the assessment, and understanding the
foundation of the CMMC Model. In addition to the CMMC framework, we include
network infrastructure concepts, a review of fundamental cybersecurity
requirements, and general IT principles based on the federal requirements. This
course will help you to gain the technical skills and expertise required to
support and prepare for CMMC assessments.

The SMU Certified CMMC Professional program is taught by licensed instructors
and designed by industry expert practitioners. This hybrid program includes
self-paced online lessons as well as live online sessions, a modality that has
been proven successful for learning technology-based programming. Through this
course, you’ll gain an understanding of the details of the CMMC process and
master the concepts required to pass the CMMC CCP exam.
