Does Cyber Crucible meet CMMC and DFARS requirements for the defense industrial base?

Short answer: Cyber Crucible is not CMMC-certified, and it says so plainly. It supports a defense contractor's obligations under DFARS 252.204-7012 and CMMC primarily by not collecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and by supporting on-premises or air-gapped deployment inside the contractor's own boundary, where CUI stays under the contractor's control.

How it supports the contractor's obligations

The honest boundary

CMMC certification is held by the contractor's environment, not by an individual security tool; Cyber Crucible is a control that supports several 800-171 requirements, not a substitute for the contractor's assessment. Mapping detail is available under NDA.
