CMMC readiness & compliance advisory

CMMC readiness
and SSP development

Connect your security requirements, technical environment, policies, and evidence in a practical delivery plan with named responsibilities.

Build readiness around the way you operate

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the Department of Defense program for assessing whether contractors have implemented applicable cybersecurity requirements. Castilix develops the documentation, responsibility framework, and delivery plan around your applicable requirements. We coordinate the people, processes, systems, and evidence needed to put that plan into practice.

Scope & shared responsibilities

Identify where controlled unclassified information (CUI) is handled, the systems and users involved, and the work owned by your organization, Castilix, and other providers. Document the boundary and data flows.

SSP & tailored policies

Develop a customer-specific system security plan (SSP), policies, and operating procedures. The SSP describes your environment and how each applicable security requirement is addressed.

Implementation coordination

Organize technical changes, organizational decisions, dependencies, and remediation into assigned work. Track documentation, implementation, and customer readiness separately.

Evidence & review preparation

Map requirements to records, system settings, interviews, and tests. Identify missing evidence, responsible owners, and validation steps. Record what was reviewed and what still needs work.

Make the program usable

Documentation your team can use

We build tailored policies, procedures, forms, and registers. The agreed scope can cover access approval and offboarding procedures, security training records, incident response responsibilities, change control, and document approval workflows.

Supporting forms and registers help your team keep actual operating records. Signed policies and completed templates are tracked separately from evidence that a control works.

Keep the work visible

One view of ownership and next steps

Castilix GRC is included with CMMC readiness engagements to organize requirements, actions, documentation, and evidence references. Track decisions and dependencies through the readiness process.

A plan of action and milestones (POA&M) can track eligible deficiencies with owners and target dates. Eligibility and assessment requirements must be evaluated for the applicable program.

Connect the enclave to your wider responsibilities

Secure Enclave subscribers receive a provider documentation package with architecture documentation, control descriptions, and a responsibility matrix. A readiness engagement adds customer-specific work across your people, policies, devices, and other systems.

For example, Castilix may manage the Cloud PC while your organization approves who receives access. Both responsibilities need records and clear ownership.

Prepare for ongoing governance

Readiness work is available for Castilix enclaves, customer-owned environments, and broader IT operations. Continued governance support and use of Castilix GRC after the engagement are scoped and quoted separately.

Readiness engagements prepare your documentation, implementation plan, and evidence for assessment. Any required independent assessment is separate from the readiness engagement.
