How can we help?

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) framework, introduced by the U.S. Department of Defense, is becoming a mandatory requirement for organizations seeking to participate in U.S. defense supply chains. The framework integrates established cybersecurity standards and practices to ensure appropriate protection of controlled unclassified information.

KPMG in Latvia supports European businesses in assessing their CMMC readiness and developing practical plans for achieving compliance. Our approach combines KPMG’s extensive advisory experience with the specialized expertise of our cooperation partner Cyber Eagle, a U.S.–based cybersecurity company engaged with global policy development and CMMC implementation initiatives.

KPMG’s methodology focuses on understanding your organization’s current security posture and identifying the steps needed to align with CMMC requirements. Together with Cyber Eagle’s subject matter experts, we provide both strategic insight and actionable recommendations to help you achieve certification readiness efficiently.

Our readiness assessments include
- Current state assessment – evaluation of existing security governance, policies, and controls against CMMC 2.0 requirements.
- Gap analysis and prioritization – identification of nonconformities and risks, with clear prioritization for remediation.
- Improvement roadmap – a structured plan for closing compliance gaps, improving documentation, and preparing for formal assessment.
- Expert advisory support – Cyber Eagle specialists provide targeted guidance on U.S. regulatory interpretation and best practices, while KPMG teams deliver local implementation and assurance support.
