AKRON, Ohio–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Kimmell Cybersecurity, a CMMC Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), is proud to announce it has successfully achieved CMMC Level 2 certification for its Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) offerings. This accomplishment makes Kimmell Cybersecurity one of the few C3PAOs to both assess and provide services at CMMC Level 2—providing a fully compliant service environment for contractors in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB).


This certification is especially significant for Department of Defense (DoD) contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), as it ensures Kimmell Cybersecurity’s managed services meet the same rigorous standards required of their clients under the NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 framework.

“For DoD contractors navigating the complexities of CMMC compliance, this certification proves that our team practices exactly what we assess,” said Brett Kimmell, Managing Member at Kimmell Cybersecurity. “We understand contractor’s unique challenges and offer managed services that are not only compliant but tested to the highest federal standards.”

The independent third-party assessment verified that Kimmell Cybersecurity has implemented and maintains all security practices required for CMMC Level 2 certification—strengthening the company’s position as a trusted cybersecurity partner for contractors building the future of U.S. defense.
