NCDMM Committed to Advanced Cybersecurity Measures to Protect CUI
NCDMM achieves perfect score on first JSVA
JOHNSTOWN, PA – The National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM) is proud to announce the achievement of a perfect 110 score on its first 800-171 Joint Surveillance Voluntary Assessment (JSVA) completed by Kieri Solutions, a Cyber-AB Authorized C3PAO, and overseen by the Defense Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assessment Center (DIBCAC). This assessment assures that NCDMM meets compliance with the Department of Defense’s (DoD) Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), designed to protect data in the defense industrial base and a requirement for securing DoD contracts.

Completion of the JSVA demonstrates NCDMM’s commitment to implementing the most advanced cybersecurity measures to handle and protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), which is critical to the work NCDMM manages with its industry and government partners.
