Hive Systems Defense Solutions announced its official designation as a Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), a milestone that solidifies the company's leadership in Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) compliance. With this achievement, Hive Systems Defense Solutions becomes one of only nine C3PAOs in Virginia and one of only 63 in the United States, underscoring its dedication to supporting the cybersecurity needs of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB).
“This certification is the culmination of years of effort, expertise, and a relentless commitment to cybersecurity excellence,” says Katie Dodson, President of Hive Systems Defense Solutions. “Achieving C3PAO status means we can now officially conduct CMMC assessments, helping defense contractors meet the stringent security requirements necessary to continue working with the U.S. Department of Defense.”
Strengthening national security through cyber compliance
CMMC compliance is mandatory for all defense contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), ensuring they meet DOD cybersecurity standards. As an authorized C3PAO, Hive Systems Defense Solutions is now among the select companies nationwide capable of providing official CMMC assessments, a critical step in helping companies secure and retain DOD contracts.
"Becoming a C3PAO reinforces our mission of making cybersecurity more approachable while delivering industry-leading compliance expertise," says Alex Nette, CEO and Co-Founder of Hive Systems. "We're proud to support defense contractors in protecting sensitive government data against cyber threats while maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity and compliance."
