Be Prepared to Secure Federal Contracts

Proud to be an Authorized C3PAO

Auditwerx is a fully Authorized C3PAO (Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization).

This designation signifies that we have met the rigorous requirements set by the Cyber AB and the DoD to conduct official CMMC assessments.

As an authorized assessor, we provide the formal certification required for Level 2 contractors, ensuring your organization meets the technical standards necessary to protect national security and maintain contract eligibility.

Why a Gap Assessment is Critical

Entering a formal certification process without a clear understanding of your current status is a significant business risk. A specialized gap review provides the clarity needed to invest resources where they matter most.

The Auditwerx Advantage

Test Once, Report Many

CMMC requirements share significant technical DNA with other frameworks such as SOC 2® and ISO 27001. Our methodology is built to eliminate the redundancy of managing multiple security standards.

We identify the technical evidence required for your CMMC gap review that also satisfies your other reporting mandates—such as log management and vulnerability scanning. By verifying these controls one time, we help you build a unified security posture. This “Test Once, Report Many” approach reduces the burden on your internal teams and ensures your path to DoD certification also strengthens your commercial market position.

Our CMMC Gap Assessment Process

Our methodology is designed to provide a comprehensive view of your technical and operational readiness.

1. Documentation & Policy Review

We begin by reviewing your existing System Security Plan (SSP) and supporting policies. We verify that your documented procedures align with the 14 domains of the CMMC framework.

2. Technical Control Verification

Our specialists perform a deep dive into your technical environment. We review firewall configurations, access control lists, and encryption implementation to determine if they meet the rigorous requirements for protecting Federal Contract Information (FCI) and CUI.

3. Interview & Observation

We engage your technical team to verify that security practices are being followed in daily operations. This step ensures that your controls are not just documented, but effectively implemented and managed.

4. Final Gap Analysis Report

The engagement concludes with a professional report detailing every identified gap. We provide a clear scoring of your current posture and a prioritized list of remediation steps to bridge the distance to certification.
