Seeking insights for research universities regarding CMMC 2.0 adoption and compliance. I'm listing our full question set below, but we would welcome insights on any or all of these:
1. What is the anticipated timeline for CMMC 2.0 adoption by the Federal Government? Any insights on the expected rollout and implementation schedule?
2. From a Higher Ed CIO perspective, what are the key operational differences between each "level" in CMMC 2.0? Are there any specific challenges or considerations especially for research universities?
3. For a research university, which CMMC level would be the most suitable target? Are there any key dates or deadlines that Higher Eds and researchers should be aware of in their compliance journey?
4. What are the most crucial features or elements of CMMC that universities need to achieve compliance? Any recommendations or best practices?
5. Specifically, are there any requirements in CMMC for 7/24/365 "eyes on glass" network and/or endpoint monitoring? If there is an endpoint requirement, does it extend to all servers and laptops issued by the university, or is it limited to hosts involved in research grants? What is expected to demonstrate compliance in this regard?
6. Apart from CMMC compliance, are there other considerations or or strategies to consider when seeking to qualify for/reduce cyber risk insurance costs?
