The path to CMMC compliance is rarely straightforward.
Yes, it’s true that every Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) follows the same standardized assessment process. But in practice, no two assessments feel alike. The difference comes down to people — each assessor brings their own personality, background, cybersecurity fluency, and interpretation of the controls. That human factor can make the process feel unpredictable, inconsistent, and, at times, even a little absurd.
Join NeoSystems security experts David Carlino (CISO), Greg Powers (VP, IT and Security Sales Engineering), and Megin Kennett (CCP & Product Marketing Manager, CMMC Solutions) for a candid discussion on what really happens during a CMMC assessment – and practical strategies to prepare for any scenario.
In this webinar, we will cover several aspects of CMMC assessments including:
- DIBCAC vs. C3PAO assessments: how these types of audits vary in approach and flexibility
- The Human Factor: why an assessor’s personality and factors like reasonableness, responsiveness, and consistency may matter more than the controls
- Assessor Variability: how factors like size and reputation of C3PAOs can shape the experience
- Avoiding Conflicts: identifying risks and red flags to watch out for
- Control interpretation: real-world stories of how minor details (yes, even labeling a key) can become a compliance sticking point
Most importantly, we will share a structured, client-focused approach to overcoming these hurdles that we have developed. We will walk you through how we’ve engineered our engagement model to anticipate and address these challenges at every stage—helping clients stay on track, reduce uncertainty, and meet tight timelines with confidence.
