CMMI V2.0 to CMMC Crosswalk: Translating CMMI V2.0 to CMMC

Conference Track: Security

The new Cybersecurity Maturity Model requirements may seem daunting, but if your organization has achieved CMMI v2.0 Level 3 then you have a head start to CMMC compliance. This presentation crosswalks CMMI v2.0 Practice Areas to specific CMMC Capabilities and Levels. Many of the processes and procedures that you have in place will be useful during your CMMC appraisal. Even the CMMC technical solutions require policies and procedures. Don’t recreate what is already working for your organization. Reuse and adapt for CMMC success.
