CMMC Calibration Requirements
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 establishes cybersecurity requirements for organizations in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) that handle Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Calibration management systems that store or process CUI-marked technical data, measurement specifications, or defense-related calibration records must meet CMMC requirements. Failure to achieve CMMC certification can disqualify contractors from receiving DoD contracts.
CMMC Level 2 requires implementation of 110 security practices from NIST SP 800-171 for systems handling CUI. Calibration systems storing CUI data such as military specification measurement data, controlled technical drawings with calibration requirements, or export-controlled measurement procedures must implement access controls, audit logging, encryption, and incident response capabilities. Data flow mapping must identify where CUI calibration data resides and transits.
Calibration records may contain CUI when they include measurement data for defense articles, specifications derived from controlled technical data packages, or calibration procedures that reveal sensitive manufacturing capabilities. Organizations must identify CUI-containing calibration records, mark them appropriately, and ensure that calibration management systems processing this data meet CMMC enclave requirements including multi-factor authentication and encrypted storage.
CalibrationOS is architected for deployment within CMMC-compliant enclaves, supporting multi-factor authentication, encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access control aligned with NIST SP 800-171 families, and comprehensive audit logging. The platform can segregate CUI and non-CUI calibration data, enforce CUI marking on applicable records, and generate System Security Plan documentation for the calibration management boundary.
If your calibration system stores or processes Controlled Unclassified Information — such as military specification measurement data, controlled technical drawings, or defense-related calibration procedures — it must be within your CMMC assessment boundary. This typically applies to defense contractors and their supply chain performing calibrations on defense articles.
CUI calibration data includes measurement results for defense articles subject to ITAR or EAR, calibration procedures derived from controlled technical data packages, specifications from CUI-marked engineering drawings, and any calibration records that reveal sensitive defense manufacturing capabilities. Organizations must conduct CUI data flow analysis to identify all affected records.
Yes, CalibrationOS supports deployment within CMMC-compliant network enclaves with FIPS 140-2 validated encryption, Active Directory integration for MFA, and network segmentation compatible with CMMC boundary requirements. The platform generates artifacts for System Security Plan documentation covering the calibration management system boundary.
CalibrationOS provides data classification tagging that allows CUI and non-CUI calibration records to be managed in the same platform with appropriate access controls. CUI-tagged records enforce additional protections including MFA re-authentication, CUI banner markings, and restricted export capabilities. Audit trails track all CUI data access.
CalibrationOS supports CMMC Level 2 requirements, which align with NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 and cover organizations handling CUI. The platform implements the 110 security practices across 14 families required for Level 2 certification, including access control, audit and accountability, identification and authentication, and system and communications protection.
CalibrationOS automates tracking, audit trails, and due date management to keep you CMMC-ready.
