CMMC Level 2 Audit

Checklist -All 110

Required Controls

Built from NIST SP 800-171 to help

DoD contractors understand exactly

what C3PAO auditors require during

a Level 2 assessment.

If your organization handles Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), this checklist shows what must be implemented, documented, and evidenced to remain contract-eligible.

This Checklist Is For DoD Contractors Who:

  • Handle or store Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)

  • Are subject to DFARS 252.204-7012

  • Are preparing for CMMC Level 2 certification

  • Want to avoid failed audits, delays, or lost contracts

If CMMC Level 2 applies to your organization, guessing is no longer an option.

Why Most Companies Struggle With CMMC Level 2

CMMC Level 2 includes 110 mandatory security controls.
Passing requires more than policies — auditors look for
verifiable evidence.

Common issues we see:

  • Controls are partially implemented but not auditable

  • Documentation does not match technical reality

  • Evidence is missing, outdated, or inconsistent

  • Teams misunderstand what auditors actually validate

This checklist exists to remove that uncertainty.

Certified by a DoD-authorized C3PAO with a perfect assessment score.

  • C3PAO Assessed & Certified
