CMMC 2.0
Compliance Made Clear
CMMC compliance is now a contract requirement — not a future consideration. Vortex helps Washington DC-area defense contractors and DIB supply chain companies achieve and maintain their required CMMC level using Microsoft GCC High and Azure Government — the same FedRAMP-authorized platform CMMC auditors expect to see.

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the Department of Defense's framework to protect sensitive defense information. If your company works with the DoD — directly or as a subcontractor — CMMC compliance is mandatory, not optional.
Foundational

Advanced
Advanced cyber hygiene aligned to NIST SP 800-171 for contractors handling CUI (Controlled Unclassified Information).
Expert
Expert-level cyber hygiene aligned to NIST SP 800-172, requiring a DoD-led triennial assessment. Reserved for contractors supporting the highest-priority national security programs.

Microsoft GCC High & FedRAMP
As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, Vortex is one of a small number of MSPs in the DMV with hands-on GCC High implementation experience. We deploy and manage Microsoft GCC High — the government cloud environment specifically designed to satisfy ITAR, EAR, and DFARS requirements — as a complete, configured environment, not a self-service migration.
