GovSky’s modern software platform streamlines CMMC, DFARS and
NIST SP 800-171 compliance, saving significant time and cost for
customers.
GovSky, the market-leading solution for Cybersecurity Maturity
Model Certification (CMMC) compliance, today announced the public
launch of its software platform. Built by a founding team of
compliance and security experts, GovSky’s goal is to cut the time
and cost of compliance for customers in half, by providing
functionality such as implementation guidance, project management,
evidence organization and document automation.
“We founded GovSky because we realized that successfully
implementing and passing a CMMC audit is going to be very hard for
most companies in the Defense Industrial Base given the time,
complexity and cost,” said Conor McClintock, Co-Founder and CEO of
GovSky. “Fortunately, many of the compliance workflows can be
optimized by software, which is exactly what we’ve built. Our goal
is to help our customers get and stay compliant as quickly and
cost-effectively as possible, so they can protect their business
from attacks.”
Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a
cybersecurity compliance requirement developed by the U.S.
Department of Defense to ensure government contractors handling
sensitive government information meet certain cybersecurity
standards, from basic cybersecurity hygiene practices to more
advanced security measures. CMMC is currently being rolled out in
government contracts over the next few years, and will be a
requirement for more than 500,000 companies in America’s Defense
Industrial Base.
Depending on a company’s starting point, implementing CMMC and
successfully passing an audit is challenging, expensive and
time-consuming, taking 6-18 months to implement and costing over
$200,000 for the typical small business. GovSky’s mission is to
reduce this burden so these businesses can efficiently earn
compliance and stay focused on their critical role in defense of
our nation.
With their platform now publicly available, GovSky will focus on
onboarding their backlog of customers and adding even more
time-saving functionality.
GovSky has raised $2.5M in funding to date, with backing from
Peterson Ventures, Revolution, SaaS Ventures, Sequoia, and
others.
