Compliance Enforcement — Effective November 10, 2025

CMMC 2.0 Level 2 is now active enforcement. Defense contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) must demonstrate compliance or risk contract ineligibility. This is not a future deadline — it is current enforcement.

Compliance Frameworks:

CMMC 2.0 | HIPAA | SOC 2 | NIST 800-171 | FedRAMP-Adjacent
