What is Regulations Compliance and Cybersecurity Compliance?
Being compliant refers to adhering to specific laws, regulations, standards, or guidelines relevant to a particular industry or field. Compliance ensures that organizations operate within legal boundaries, meet industry standards, and uphold ethical practices. In the context of cybersecurity, compliance involves implementing measures to protect sensitive data, prevent unauthorized access, and mitigate security risks.
In today's digital landscape, cybersecurity compliance is paramount for businesses to safeguard their assets and maintain trust with customers. Failure to comply with cybersecurity regulations can result in severe consequences, including legal penalties, financial losses, and reputational damage.
Cybersecurity services play a crucial role in helping organizations achieve and maintain compliance. These services encompass a range of offerings, including cybersecurity consulting, IT security services, and cybersecurity consulting services. Cybersecurity consultants assist organizations in identifying compliance requirements, assessing their current security posture, and implementing measures to meet regulatory standards.
Cybersecurity companies like CyberSecOp offer comprehensive solutions to assist organizations in navigating the complexities of cybersecurity compliance. Here's how CyberSecOp can help:

What is Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a unified standard intended for implementing cybersecurity across DoD contractors.
The CMMC has been in development for a number of years, but the first details on the framework were released in January 2020. The framework makes use of a “maturity” model, in which audits will be conducted by third-party assessors. Firms will be assigned a “level” that represents the cybersecurity protections, or maturity level they have demonstrated.
Breach Report and predicted loss by 2024
A recent study predicted that business losses due to cybercrime will exceed $4.5 trillion by 2024. The threat to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB)--the network of more than 300,000 businesses, organizations, and universities that research, engineer, develop, acquire, design, produce, deliver, sustain, and operate military weapons systems--is especially alarming due to current cyber warfare activities by cybercriminals and state-sponsored actors.
Security is a foundational component of acquisition
The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment (OUSD(A&S) recognizes that security is a foundational component of acquisition and that some contractors are trading security to benefit cost, schedule, and performance. It's estimated that the DoD supply chain consists of more than 300,000 businesses and organizations, all of which are targets. Most of these organizations are small to mid-size businesses, which are the most vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Based on over 100 Data Breach Investigation's CyberSecOp recognized that organizations between 100 -300 employees are prime victims for cyber criminals because of lack of security controls.
CMMC Model Structure
The goal of CMMC is to provide a framework for the improvement of cybersecurity in DIB sector organizations. CMMC currently defines 17 domains of technical capability, each with five levels of certification (L1 through L5) and specific practices. The DoD will require an organization to have CMMC Level 3 certification before it can receive Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) in any domain.
CMMC Domains
CMMC Leveled Practices
The majority of the practices (110 of 171) originate from the safeguarding requirements and security requirements specified in FAR Clause 52.204-21 and DFARS Clause 252.204-7012. The practices fall into five levels:
Level 1 represents basic cyber hygiene, and focuses on the protection of federal contract information (FCI). It consists of practices that correspond only to the basic safeguarding requirements specified in 48 CFR 52.204-21 ("Basic Safeguarding of Covered Contractor Information Systems").
Level 2 is a transitional step in cybersecurity maturity progression to protect CUI. Level 2 consists of a subset of the security requirements specified in NIST SP 800-171, as well as practices from other standards and references.
Level 3 focuses on the protection of CUI. It encompasses all of the security requirements specified in NIST SP 800‑171, as well as additional practices from other standards and references.
At Level 4, the model begins to focus more on the proactive activities an organization can take to protect, detect, and respond to threats. These practices enhance the organization's ability to address and adapt to the changing tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by advanced persistent threats (APT)s.
Level 5 focuses on the protection of CUI from APTs. The practices increase the depth and sophistication of cybersecurity capabilities.
CMMC Cyber Compliance Services
DOD has made the effort to simplify CMMC, but it is surely still complicated. CMMC is based on several other standards, including DFARS, CERT RMM, 800-171, AU ACSC Essential Eight, UK NCSC Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001, CIS Critical Security Controls, and the NIST Cyber Security Framework. Utilizing all the above information security standards make it very challenging for most DOD contractors to copy with CMMC. Get compliant with CyberSecOp CMMC Assessment, Security Program & Advisory Services.

CyberSecOp and Coronet announce partnership
Bringing Coronet’s AI and cloud technology extends CyberSecOp capability to protect lean IT and SMB companies.
Stamford, CT – September 18, 2019 – CyberSecOp, a Cyber Security consulting firm based in Stamford, CT announced today its partnership with Coronet, the world leader in security as-as-service powered by AI and cloud.
Coronet, which provides security for cloud applications, BYOD and communications over public networks, brings enterprise grade security to companies of any size.
With Coronet’s AI platform, CyberSecOp will identify and remediate SaaS vulnerabilities, malware and ransomware spread through cloud services, malicious behavior by employees, and control access to SaaS based on the security posture of the device and network the user is using.
“We were very impressed with Coronet’s ability to identify and remediate risks. Most of our customers are moving to cloud platforms such as Office 365, Dropbox, Salesforce, and Slack to name a few. Practically all of our customers adopted a BYOD strategy.” Said Jeffery Walker CISO of CyberSecOp. “These cost and convenience driven advances leave organizations extremely exposed from a cybersecurity and regulatory perspective, and Coronet helps us protect our customers against these threats.”
Coronet’s platform not only protects against cyber threats, but identifies PII, PCI, and PHI regulatory violations in files that are stored in cloud services or sent through them. As regulators become more aggressive, with fines and penalties skyrocketing, Coronet’s ability to identify potential violations eliminates such regulatory exposure.
“We are very excited to have CyberSecOp join the Coronet family. We are very impressed with the caliber of talent that we saw at CyberSecOp, and know that Coronet in their hands would alleviate many risks and concerns their customers currently experience.”
