CMMC
Authentic8 maintains compliance with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 1 framework. As a dedicated partner to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), this status affirms that Authentic8 performs the required annual self-assessments to ensure the foundational protection of Federal Contract Information (FCI) across our cloud isolation solutions.
Key Highlights of Authentic8’s CMMC Compliance
| Certification Level | Strategic Implementation |
|---|---|
| CMMC Level 1 (Self-Assessment) | Aligned with the 17 foundational security controls of NIST SP 800-171, this level confirms that Authentic8 has implemented the basic safeguarding practices necessary to protect FCI. Our compliance is affirmed through an annual self-assessment submitted by senior company leadership. |
| Operational Integrity | Beyond technical implementation, Authentic8 ensures that these 17 controls are consistently applied across our organizational processes. We maintain a culture of security awareness to ensure that Federal Contract Information is handled with the highest degree of integrity. |
| Secure Enclave Architecture | The Silo platform acts as a secure “read-only” environment for defense analysts. By ensuring browsing activity remains isolated from sensitive local environments, Silo helps our customers minimize their own CMMC compliance scope and risk surface. |
