How many controls are there in CMMC Level 2?

  1. 50 Controls

  2. 52 Controls

  3. 54 Controls

  4. 56 Controls

The correct answer is: 52 Controls

In CMMC Level 2, there are a total of 72 controls. However, the options provide choices that indicate there might be a misunderstanding or incorrect information listed in the provided answers. This is an opportunity to clarify that when discussing CMMC Level 2 specifically, it encompasses several practices that build upon Level 1, which in turn is designed to enhance the organization's security posture. CMMC Level 2 includes practices aimed at protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and is made up of 72 distinct controls that align with the NIST SP 800-171 requirements plus additional practices to bolster security. Since the selections are misaligned with the official figures, it's important to remember the broader context of CMMC and its structured approach to ensuring robust cybersecurity frameworks across different levels. Understanding the correct quantity of controls and the framework they belong to is crucial for developing appropriate strategies for compliance and security measures required by organizations handling sensitive information.
