CMMC Level 2 · Microsoft 365 GCC High · ISSM/ISSO support
From first gap assessment to C3PAO pass.
TechAxia builds, documents and runs CMMC Level 2 programs for Defense Industrial Base contractors on Microsoft 365 GCC High and Azure Government. We've been through certification ourselves, so we build programs that hold up in front of an assessor.
Why contractors pick us
CMMC Level 2 certified ourselves
We hold our own environment to the standard we build for you.
Led by a Lead CMMC Certified Assessor
LCCA, CCA, CCP, CISSP and MCT. We know how assessors read evidence.
Hands-on GCC High tenant management
We configure, secure and manage your GCC High tenant day to day, so it stays compliant after go-live.
Supported by U.S. persons
Only U.S. persons work in your environment and handle your CUI.

Who we work with
Defense contractors who handle CUI and need to show they protect it.
On July 13, 2026, the Department of War paused CMMC Phase II, the C3PAO certification requirements that were set to begin November 10, 2026, while it reviews the program. The pause doesn't lift your obligations. Phase I self-assessments remain in place, DFARS 252.204-7012 still requires you to protect CUI, and NIST SP 800-171 is being enforced through self-assessments and select government-led assessments.
The work hasn't gone away. Contractors who use this window to build a real program will have an accurate self-assessment today and be ready when certification resumes.
Most of our clients are small and mid-sized primes and subcontractors: aerospace, space systems, precision manufacturing and engineering firms. Some are starting with no security program. Others have a commercial Microsoft 365 tenant that won't meet the requirements. We take it from wherever you are.
Services
One partner for your CMMC program, the GCC High environment it runs on, and the restricted programs beyond it.
M365 GCC High Migration & Managed Services
A full tenant or a CUI enclave in GCC High, hardened to NIST SP 800-171 and managed for you after go-live.
- Commercial-to-GCC High migration
- Intune device hardening and enrollment
- Passwordless MFA (Windows Hello, FIDO2)
- Microsoft Sentinel logging and monitoring
ISSM / ISSO Support for Restricted Programs
Some contracts go beyond CMMC. When a restricted program needs an Authority to Operate, our dedicated ISSM and ISSO team guides it through the Risk Management Framework and keeps the ATO in good standing.
- RMF security packages for ATO
- eMASS package build and submission
- Onsite ISSMs and ISSOs at your facility
- Continuous monitoring and ATO upkeep
Two teams, kept separate by design.
Our CMMC team, all U.S. persons, builds and maintains your compliance program. Our ISSM/ISSO team works onsite with your restricted programs. The two teams have their own people and work independently, so restricted-program information stays on a need-to-know basis. You still get both from one partner you already trust.
How it works
Four phases, one team, no handoffs between vendors.
- 01
Assess
We scope where your CUI lives and score you against every Level 2 assessment objective. You get a clear, prioritized gap list.
- 02
Build
CMMC is mostly documentation. About 60–70% of the work is policies, plans, procedures and your System Security Plan. The other 30–40% is technical. We write the documents and implement the controls (GCC High, device and identity hardening) together, so what's written matches what's running.
- 03
Prove
We collect the evidence, score your SPRS self-assessment accurately, and run a mock assessment the way a C3PAO would. When you go for certification, we're with you on assessment day.
- 04
Maintain
Compliance doesn't end at assessment. Our U.S.-person team runs your recurring checklists, monitors your controls, updates your documentation as you change, and keeps your evidence and SPRS score current for annual affirmations and reassessment.
Case study
No formal CMMC program to a passed C3PAO assessment.
A California defense contractor came to TechAxia with no formal CMMC program in place. We scoped their CUI, built their GCC High environment, wrote their documentation and prepared their team. In November 2026 they passed their Level 2 assessment with a C3PAO.

Security tipIf it isn't written down, it didn't happen. Assessors grade your documentation, not your intentions.
Security tipTreat an MFA prompt you didn't ask for as an attack in progress. Deny it and report it.
Security tipReview who has admin rights every month. Privileges pile up quietly.
Why first names and avatars? Given the nature of our work, we deliberately keep our team's full names, photos and personal details off this page. It's the same discretion we bring to your environment. You'll meet everyone properly once we start working together.
