RPO Readiness & Consulting Providers
Registered Provider Organizations authorized to provide CMMC consulting, preparation, and readiness services.
What is a RPO?
An RPO (Registered Provider Organization) is authorized by The Cyber AB to provide consulting and advisory services to help organizations prepare for CMMC certification. RPOs guide you through gap analysis, control implementation, documentation, and readiness activities.
When do you need a RPO?
You need an RPO when you are beginning your CMMC compliance journey or need help preparing for your assessment. RPOs help you understand your current security posture, identify gaps, implement required controls, and build the documentation and processes needed before a C3PAO assesses you.
