Continuous CMMC Level 2 and NIST 800-171 evidence
Why defense contractors move off annual self-assessment
01Your score is only true on the day you calculate it. Everything after that is an assumption.
Continuous, not annual
Controls are evaluated against live telemetry every day instead of being reconstructed once a year for the assessor.
CUI known at all times
Controlled Unclassified Information is identified and tagged inside the data layer, so you always know where it lives and who touched it.
Evidence that proves itself
Every control state is backed by a signed system event, not a screenshot captured the week before the C3PAO arrives.
One engine, many frameworks
The same event satisfies CMMC, FedRAMP and NIST CSF obligations without a second evidence programme.
What your defense and compliance teams can automate
02One engine across the DoD reporting lifecycle — from CUI sanitization to continuous CMMC assessment and POAM management.
Continuous CMMC 2.0 Compliance
Map live network telemetry directly to NIST 800-171 and CMMC Level 2/3 controls in real-time, moving beyond static, annual self-assessments.
CUI & FCI Data Tracking
Identify, tag, and monitor Controlled Unclassified Information across your entire infrastructure as it streams through the data layer.
Automated SSP Generation
Draft and update your System Security Plan (SSP) dynamically based on the actual, real-time configuration and event data of your environment.
Real-Time POA&M Management
Automatically generate and track Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) tasks the millisecond a technical control failure is detected.
Secure Enclave Monitoring
Continuously ingest and validate boundary protection logs to ensure total isolation of your federal data environments.
Incident Reporting Readiness
Detect advanced threats using AI classification and automatically draft the mandated 72-hour DoD cyber incident report with the required forensics.
Access & Identity Verification
Correlate authentication logs and access events across the pipeline to ensure strict "least privilege" enforcement for CUI access.
Supply Chain Risk Integration
Monitor and ingest compliance health statuses from subcontractors to ensure CMMC requirements flow down through your vendor pool.
Multi-Framework Mapping
Fulfill CMMC, FedRAMP, and NIST CSF requirements simultaneously by orchestrating a single security event across multiple federal compliance domains.
Annual self-assessment vs a continuous federal engine
03Most readiness tooling produces a score once a year. Expand any row to see what the difference produces.
A once-a-year workshop produces an SPRS score that starts drifting the day after it is submitted.
Typical artifact Spreadsheet score with no supporting event lineage.
Live telemetry is mapped to each NIST 800-171 practice as events arrive, so control state is current at all times.
Proof produced
- Per-practice timeline of every passing and failing event
- Timestamped drift alerts with the triggering system event
Discovery scans locate CUI after it has already spread into shares, mailboxes and backups outside the enclave.
Typical artifact Remediation ticket listing exposed files.
CUI and FCI are identified and tagged in the stream, so controlled data is tracked from the moment it appears.
Proof produced
- Tagging log per data flow with handling policy applied
- Boundary map of systems provably outside the enclave
A document written once and edited by hand, describing an architecture that has since changed.
Typical artifact Static Word document with a stale revision date.
The SSP is generated from actual configuration and event data, so it describes the environment as it runs today.
Proof produced
- Versioned SSP with the configuration source for each statement
- Change log linking every revision to the event that caused it
Gaps are discovered during assessment prep, weeks or months after the control actually broke.
Typical artifact POA&M list assembled just before the audit.
A POA&M item is opened, owned and tracked the moment a technical control fails, with the failure evidence attached.
Proof produced
- POA&M entries with detection timestamp and remediation history
- Closure evidence showing the control passing again
Each framework runs as a separate programme with its own owners, questionnaires and evidence collection.
Typical artifact Duplicated evidence per framework.
One event is mapped to every framework it satisfies, so CMMC, FedRAMP and NIST CSF advance together.
Proof produced
- Cross-framework coverage map per control event
- Gap report showing only genuinely uncovered requirements
How the engine works
04Four stages running continuously across the DoD reporting lifecycle.
Ingest
Enclave boundary logs, identity events, endpoint telemetry and subcontractor attestations stream into one governed pipeline.
Classify
CUI and FCI are identified and tagged in flight, so controlled data is tracked wherever it moves.
Assess
Every event is scored against NIST 800-171 and CMMC Level 2/3 practices, opening POA&M items the instant a control fails.
Prove
The SSP, POA&M and incident reports are generated from that evidence and kept audit-ready for your C3PAO.
