C Speed has achieved Level 2 certification under the Department of War’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification program following an assessment conducted by Redspin, a certified CMMC third-party assessment organization.
The achievement of CMMC Level 2 certification comes as defense contractors continue to strengthen cybersecurity protection across the defense industrial base. Industry leaders and government officials will discuss topics including AI-enabled cyber defense, zero trust architecture, cyber resilience and emerging threats during the 2026 Cyber Summit on May 21.

What Is CMMC Level 2?
The company said Wednesday CMMC Level 2 is the cybersecurity standard required for defense contractors that process, store or transmit controlled unclassified information on behalf of the U.S. government.
According to C Speed, the assessment included all 110 security requirements and 320 assessment objectives under the CMMC Level 2 framework. The company noted that it achieved a perfect score of 110.
“The warfighter cannot afford a supply chain that falls short. CMMC Level 2 is the bar the Department of War set for protecting the information our customers trust us with, and our team cleared it without a single deduction,” said Andy Maner, executive chairman of C Speed. “We pursued this certification early and earned it cleanly because that is the standard a defense company should hold itself to.”
