CyberSheath supports CTG Federal's achievement of CMMC Level 2 certification. RESTON, Va. - March 31, 2026 - CyberSheath, a leading provider of cybersecurity and compliance services for the defense industrial base, supported CTG Federal, a U.S. small-business government IT solutions provider, in the implementation and successful achievement of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2. CTG Federal delivers advanced IT infrastructure and mission systems to U.S. government customers, including organizations within the Department of War. As part of its commitment to protecting controlled unclassified information (CUI) and maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity, CTG Federal established a comprehensive security program aligned to the CMMC Level 2 framework. To support this effort, CTG Federal worked with CyberSheath to augment internal capabilities across several areas of the program, including security architecture validation, control implementation support, and ongoing operational processes required to meet CMMC Level 2 standards. "Defense contractors responsible for handling controlled unclassified information must operate with a high degree of discipline and technical rigor," said Emil Sayegh, CEO of CyberSheath. "CTG Federal demonstrated a strong internal cybersecurity foundation, and we were proud to support their team as they finalized the architecture and operational controls necessary to meet CMMC Level 2 requirements." The formal assessment was conducted by Cybersec Investments, a Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO). Achieving CMMC Level 2 certification validates that CTG Federal's security environment and operational processes meet the Department of War requirements for safeguarding controlled unclassified information.

"Our team invested significant effort in building a mature security program aligned with CMMC, and CyberSheath provided valuable support during the implementation and validation process. Achieving CMMC Level 2 reinforces our commitment to protecting the missions and information entrusted to us by our government customers." As CMMC requirements expand across the defense industrial base, CTG Federal's certification ensures the company is positioned to continue supporting defense customers that require validated cybersecurity maturity.
