iBase-t Obtains Level 2 Certification from CMMC to Strengthen Its Partnership in the Field of Modern Defense Manufacturing

Independent assessments have verified the security controls supporting the company's services for aerospace and defense manufacturers.

Lake Forest, California, USA, November 10th / PRNewswire / -- iBase-t, which provides AI native digital manufacturing and support software for the aerospace and defense industries, announced today that it has obtained Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification ( CMMC ) Level 2. This achievement strengthens the company's security foundation in supporting manufacturers to advance modernization of production, quality, as well as maintenance, repair, and overhauling ( MRO ) operations.

The manufacturing software solutions provided by iBase-t are applied in scenarios related to aerospace, national defense, and national security. Therefore, compliance with CMMC has become increasingly important for its continued participation in U.S. defense projects. This certification enables the company to support projects that require the exchange of controlled non-confidential information ( CUI ), to participate in bidding and contracting processes that require CMMC, and to maintain compliant information workflows. iBase-t states that this certification provides independent verification, proving that its assessed environment meets the 110 security requirements outlined in NIST SP Version 2, Chapter 800-171, for the protection of controlled non-confidential information ( CUI ).

An authorized third-party assessment institution CMMC ( C3PAO ) has confirmed that iBase-t meets all 110 requirements, and no issues have been identified that would require postponement to action plans or milestones ( POA &M ).

iBase-t, President and CEO, Naveen Poonian stated: "Our customers are making long-term technical decisions that affect how they manufacture, maintain, and support some of the world's most complex products. They need to have confidence in the partners behind these systems. This certification indicates that we have invested in supporting the security requirements necessary for the aerospace and defense industries, and it also strengthens our foundation for continued growth in this market."

This certification provides more confidence to iBase-t aerospace and defense customers, indicating that they are working with a team that understands today's ever-evolving cybersecurity and compliance environment. The certification also provides written evidence of iBase-t's security practices when dealing with sensitive technical drawings, manufacturing information, and other project data, further demonstrating the company's commitment to the operational capabilities required to serve highly regulated customers over the long term.

Jasdeep Singh Mann, the Senior Vice President in charge of IT security and AI innovation, stated: "Obtaining CMMC Level 2 certification requires our continuous investment in personnel, processes, and technology. Our focus is on maintaining these controls through ongoing governance, training, and operational supervision. Customers need to be assured that the protection of sensitive information is integrated into our daily work practices."
