CMMC 2.0 readiness checklist for subcontractors
The 17-step checklist we use with every defense client before their Level 2 assessment.
CMMC · HIPAA · FINRA
We build, manage, and secure the infrastructure that keeps you compliant and operational. Orlando-based. Defense-grade.
The challenge
Defense contractors and regulated businesses face a convergence of cybersecurity mandates, evolving threat landscapes, and operational demands that generic IT providers cannot address.
DoD contractors must demonstrate cybersecurity maturity or lose contract eligibility. The gap between your current posture and certification is likely larger than you think.
Ransomware, phishing, and insider threats target mid-market companies precisely because they lack enterprise-grade defenses. You need 24/7 protection, not quarterly scans.
Downtime, data loss, and compliance violations cost far more than proactive managed services. The question is not whether you can afford IT — it is whether you can afford not to.

We have guided dozens of contractors through the compliance process. Here is how it works.
We audit your current environment against the applicable framework — CMMC, HIPAA, or FINRA — and deliver a clear gap report with risk-ranked findings.
We close the gaps: policy creation, technical controls, access management, encryption, logging, and everything else the framework requires.
We build the documentation package that auditors need: system security plans, policies, procedures, and evidence of implementation.
We support you through the audit process and then maintain your posture with ongoing monitoring, training, and annual reassessments.
Case study
A mid-size defense subcontractor in Central Florida needed CMMC Level 2 certification to retain a DoD prime contract. With no internal IT security staff and 14 critical gaps identified in our initial assessment, the timeline seemed impossible.
What clients say
"Diriga took us from zero compliance documentation to CMMC Level 2 certified in under four months. Their team understood the DoD requirements better than any firm we evaluated."
"We switched from a big-box MSP to Diriga and immediately noticed the difference. Response times dropped, our compliance posture improved, and we finally have an IT partner who speaks our language."
