CMMC vs NIST Alignment Matrix Explained
9/11/2025
Organizations pursuing both CMMC Level 2 and NIST 800-171 benefit from a unified control correlation matrix. We build a heat map linking overlapping practices (access control, incident response, configuration management) and flagging delta activities early.
The matrix drives remediation sequencing, evidence artifact reuse, and tooling rationalization. Outcome: reduced duplication, clearer ownership boundaries, and compressed readiness timelines.
