Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification 2.0

DoD certification required for all prime and sub-contractors handling CUI. Level 2 maps to NIST 800-171. Hardware controls are a key differentiator in assessments.

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification 2.0

IA.L2-3.5.3 Use of multi-factor authentication for local and network access

Phishing-resistant MFA using hardware security keys. Software TOTP and SMS are explicitly excluded from "phishing-resistant" in NIST 800-63B and most modern framework guidance.

Products that satisfy this control:

Security key Nitrokey 3C NFC $75 Security key Nitrokey 3A NFC $69 Hardware security module Nitrokey HSM 2 $135

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 IA-2(6) NIST CSF 2.0 PR.AA-03 ISO 27001 A.8.5 SOC 2 CC6.1 NIS2 Art.21(2)(i) CIS Controls v8 CIS-6.3

SC.L2-3.13.10 Establish and manage cryptographic keys

Hardware-bound key generation and storage. Private keys generated and stored inside a certified secure element (EAL 6+) and are non-exportable by design.

Products that satisfy this control:

Security key Nitrokey 3C NFC $75 Security key Nitrokey 3A NFC $69 Hardware security module Nitrokey HSM 2 $135

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 SC-12 NIST CSF 2.0 PR.DS-02 ISO 27001 A.8.24 SOC 2 CC6.1 NIS2 Art.21(2)(h) CIS Controls v8 CIS-3.11

AC.L2-3.1.18 Control connection of mobile devices

Hardened mobile OS with per-app sensor controls, verified boot, and no background telemetry. Satisfies mobile device management and bring-your-own-device security requirements.

Products that satisfy this control:

Hardened phone NitroPhone 10 Pro $1,795 Hardened phone NitroPhone 10 Pro XL $2,195 Hardened phone NitroPhone 5a $795

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 AC-19 NIST CSF 2.0 PR.AC-3 ISO 27001 A.8.1 SOC 2 CC6.8 NIS2 Art.21(2)(e) CIS Controls v8 CIS-4.4

SI.L2-3.14.6 Monitor organizational systems to detect attacks

Measured boot chain verified on every power-on. Any firmware modification — supply chain implant, evil-maid attack, or malicious update — fails attestation before the OS loads.

Products that satisfy this control:

Secure laptop NitroPad V54 (14") $1,795 Secure laptop NitroPad V56 (16") $1,895

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 SI-7 NIST CSF 2.0 DE.CM-09 ISO 27001 A.8.8 SOC 2 CC7.1 NIS2 Art.21(2)(e) CIS Controls v8 CIS-2.3

SC.L2-3.13.3 Separate user functionality from system management functionality

VM-level compartmentalization means a compromise of one domain (e.g. browser) cannot reach another (e.g. keys, vault). No other consumer laptop provides this by default.

Products that satisfy this control:

Secure laptop NitroPad V54 (14") $1,795 Secure laptop NitroPad V56 (16") $1,895

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 SC-3 NIST CSF 2.0 PR.AC-5 ISO 27001 A.8.22 SOC 2 CC6.6 NIS2 Art.21(2)(e) CIS Controls v8 CIS-12.2

SC.L2-3.13.1 Monitor, control, and protect communications at external boundaries

Stateful firewall with IPS at the network perimeter. All inbound/outbound traffic inspected with Suricata rule sets. VPN gateway replaces consumer VPN dependency.

Products that satisfy this control:

Network security NitroWall V1410 $445

Same control in other frameworks:

NIST 800-53 SC-7 NIST CSF 2.0 PR.AC-5 ISO 27001 A.8.22 SOC 2 CC6.7 NIS2 Art.21(2)(e) CIS Controls v8 CIS-12.3

SC.L2-3.13.16 Protect the confidentiality of CUI at rest

Hardware-encrypted storage and self-hosted file servers replace cloud storage with hardware you control. Encryption keys never leave your environment.

Products that satisfy this control:

Secure laptop NitroPad V54 (14") $1,795 Secure laptop NitroPad V56 (16") $1,895 Secure storage NextBox NAS $475 Hardware security module Nitrokey HSM 2 $135

CM.L2-3.4.1 Establish and maintain baseline configurations

Open-source firmware is publicly auditable and reproducibly built. EU jurisdiction hardware is not subject to US National Security Letters. Directly addresses hardware supply chain risk in CMMC and NIS2.

Products that satisfy this control:

Secure laptop NitroPad V54 (14") $1,795 Secure laptop NitroPad V56 (16") $1,895 Security key Nitrokey 3C NFC $75 Security key Nitrokey 3A NFC $69 Hardened phone NitroPhone 10 Pro $1,795 Hardened phone NitroPhone 10 Pro XL $2,195 Hardened phone NitroPhone 5a $795

SC.L2-3.13.8 Implement cryptographic mechanisms to prevent disclosure during transmission

Verified boot ensures the TLS stack is unmodified before communication. VPN gateway encrypts all remote access traffic. Hardware-backed keys prevent interception even if endpoints are observed.
