CMMC Scoping for Level 2

Screenshot from video about CMMC Level 2 scoping, showing the Level 2 Assessment Guide

This video is provided by Amira Armond and Jil Wright (CMMC Provisional Assessors and Provisional Instructors) from Kieri Solutions, an Authorized C3PAO.

Topics discussed in the video are:

  • How boundaries affect CMMC Level 2 scope
  • How contractors are expected to manage risk at level 2
  • Clouds are generally never specialized assets (except Government Property)
  • How to pick between CUI Asset, Specialized Asset, and Security Protection Asset (when multiple apply)
  • Is it Out of Scope or a Contractor Risk Managed asset?
  • Does CUI Ciphertext passing through an asset make it a CUI Asset?
  • Can you skip assessing a network that has CUI in it?
  • What happens if assessors discover an asset that should be in scope, but wasn’t?
  • Are corporate websites in-scope for assessment?

This content is way more than the CCP course blueprint covers and more in-depth than what is normally covered in CCA courses!
