Our strategic partnership brings together the tools and services of Cocoon Data and eFortresses to help Defence Industry Base (DIB) contractors and subcontractors who need to develop and improve their cybersecurity maturity through the CMMC initiative by the US DoD.     ***“CMMC is the emerging ‘must-have’ for all private contractors in the DIB industry supplying the US DoD. It is being mandated by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition & Sustainment (OUSD(A&S)) and we are pleased to announce a highly secure and compliant offering at a very competitive price point,”*** says Trent Telford, Chairman and CEO, Cocoon Data.   Cocoon Data’s Cocoon Data provides military grade security for the storage, sharing and collaborating of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) to help US DoD suppliers comply with the necessary requirements for assessment of a CMMC maturity level. Cocoon Data has selected eFortresses CMMC Scorecard to develop the roadmap and prepare Cocoon Data for their planned CMMC assessment at the end of this year. In parallel to this, eFortresses is leveraging Cocoon Data’s secure storage and collaboration tool to receive evidence of CMMC Processes, Activities and Practices with the goal of integrating Cocoon Data into their CMMC Scorecard Risk Rating and LMS Platform.
