If you do business with the Department of Defense — directly or as a subcontractor — CMMC compliance is no longer optional. The final rule published in November 2025. Phase-in is already underway. By November 2028, virtually all DoD contracts will require it. If your prime contractor asks you to demonstrate compliance and you are not ready, you lose the work.
This book is not written by a vendor trying to sell you software. It is not written by a lawyer billing you by the hour. It is written in plain English by an IT Security Analyst with over 25 years of experience — specifically for the small business owner or operations manager who needs to understand what CMMC Level 1 actually requires and what to do about it this week.
Inside you will find every one of the 17 CMMC Level 1 practices explained in plain English, a step-by-step walkthrough of the SPRS self-assessment and score submission process, a 30-day action plan to close the most common compliance gaps, the free official resources you need — and nothing you have to pay for, and a clear explanation of the False Claims Act risk that comes with attesting to an inaccurate score.
CMMC Level 1 is achievable. Most small businesses can get there with discipline and documentation, not expensive tools. This book gives you the roadmap.
