Which level of CMMC focuses on basic cyber hygiene practices?

  1. Level 1

  2. Level 2

  3. Level 3

  4. Level 4

The correct answer is: Level 1

Level 1 of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) specifically emphasizes basic cyber hygiene practices. This level is designed for organizations that need to implement foundational cybersecurity controls and practices. The focus at this level is primarily on safeguarding Federal Contract Information (FCI) through the implementation of 17 basic security practices. These practices cover areas such as access control, awareness and training, incident response, and media protection, all of which are fundamental measures that organizations should adopt to protect sensitive information. At this level, the objective is to ensure that organizations can take basic steps to prevent cyber threats and establish a security baseline that contributes to their overall cybersecurity resilience. By mastering these foundational practices, organizations set the groundwork for more advanced cybersecurity measures in higher CMMC levels, which require more sophisticated and controlled practices.
