Xometry, the global AI-powered marketplace connecting enterprise buyers with suppliers of manufacturing services, announced it has become one of the first companies in any industry to achieve Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC Level 2), for adherence to rigorous cybersecurity and information security standards for the aerospace and defense industries as set forth by the U.S. Department of Defense.
The recently finalized CMMC framework requires contractors seeking to do business with the Department of Defense to comply with stringent cybersecurity requirements for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), including ITAR-regulated export-controlled data, and to undergo an audit by a Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO). Xometry received a perfect score.
“Xometry’s CMMC Level 2 certification demonstrates our industry leadership, and reinforces our position as a trusted partner for domestic aerospace companies, defense agencies, and other organizations that require strict data protection measures,” said Tarit Mitra, Xometry’s head of cyber and information security. “In today’s complex and challenging landscape, protecting sensitive information is not just a regulatory requirement—it’s a critical component of maintaining trust with our customers and protecting sensitive information vital to our national security.”
