The CMMC accreditation Body (CMMC-AB) has approved TechSage Solutions as a Registered Provider Organization to assist Department of Defense Contractors prepare for their CMMC Assessments.

San Antonio, TX, December 23, 2020 / -- TechSage Solutions announces that we have been approved as a CMMC Registered Provider Organization (RPO) by the CMMC Accreditation Board, allowing us to provide consulting, remediation and ongoing compliance management for Department of Defense Contractors and third party suppliers striving to achieve their new mandatory Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC).

The Department of Defense (DoD) released its new Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) version 1.0 on January 31, 2020.  The CMMC is a unified standard for implementing cybersecurity across the entire defense industrial base (DIB) supply chain that includes 300,000 plus companies.  CMMC was developed to combat the rise of significant compromises of sensitive Department of Defense information that can be found on contractors’ computer systems. Contractors have previously been able to self certify that they had implemented appropriate security controls on their information technology.

The CMMC structures five cybersecurity certification levels ranging from Basic cyber hygiene to Advanced/Progressive including 17 domains, 171 practices and 43 capabilities with a variety of regulatory requirements.

The new DFARS 252.204-7012 Interim Rule was released September 29, 2020 that includes a clause for adding CMMC as a requirement in DoD contracts and requiring all DoD contractors to submit a NIST SP 800-171 Self Assessment score into the SPRS system.

The CMMC Accreditation Body recently began screening individual applicants for Registered Practitioners (RP) and company applicants for Registered Provider Organization (RPO) status.  RPOs are required to have RPs working with them to assist DoD contractors with preparing for their CMMC assessments.  TechSage Solutions is honored to be among the first companies to earn RPO status.  As an RPO our TechSage Solutions RPs have gone through the CMMCAB RP training to become knowledgeable about CMMC standards, provide CMMC consulting services, receive our listing in the CMMC market place and proudly display our official logo.
