The VextaFed CMMC Engine Accelerator™

110 Controls. One Pipeline.
Federal-Grade.

Proprietary deployment automation that codifies all 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls into a repeatable, evidence-ready pipeline. We replace months of manual remediation with a structured engagement — scaled to the complexity of each tenant.

The Engine

Not a Binder. A Deployment Pipeline.

Most CMMC consultancies hand you policies and let you figure out implementation. The Engine Accelerator deploys the controls, generates the evidence, and packages the artifacts in a single repeatable flow.

110 Controls Codified

Every NIST 800-171 control is a deployable function — access policies, audit rules, DLP, FIPS settings, sensitivity labels. Run once, get the full baseline.

Living Evidence Vault

Every artifact — screenshots, exports, audit logs, KQL outputs — lands in an isolated SharePoint structure mapped to NIST 800-171 domains, tagged for C3PAO defensibility.

FIPS-Validated Key Vault + Customer Key

SC.L2-3.13.10 done properly — Azure Key Vault Premium with HSM/RSA-4096, customer-managed encryption keys for M365, isolated CUI repository with IRM enforcement.

12-Month Assessment Cycle

CMMC isn't a one-time deployment — it's a continuous program. The Engine drives a 12-month domain rotation with monthly evidence refresh, POAM updates, and SPRS recalculation.

CUI Lifecycle

Every Stage. Every Layer.

Where CUI lives, who touches it, and how it stays protected from creation through egress — every stage mapped to NIST SP 800-171 controls.

  1. 01

    CUI Created

    User saves a new file marked CUI, or imports an existing CUI document from a contract.

    MP-3.8.4 · AC-3.1.22
  2. 02

    CUI Stored at Rest

    File lands in the isolated CUI SharePoint repository. Encrypted with Customer Key (HSM-backed RSA-4096); Microsoft holds an inner key, you hold the outer.

    SC-3.13.8 · SC-3.13.10 · SC-3.13.16
  3. 03

    CUI Accessed

    Authorized user requests access via Conditional Access — requires MFA, compliant device, and US-only sign-in. IRM evaluates sensitivity before opening.

    AC-3.1.3 · IA-3.5.3 · AC-3.1.4
  4. 04

    CUI in Use

    Office app honors the sensitivity label. Watermark, restricted save-as paths, no print/export to unmanaged destinations.

    MP-3.8.1 · AC-3.1.20
  5. 05

    CUI at Egress

    DLP blocks unauthorized share — email to external, link-share, USB copy, third-party cloud upload. Audit logged. Sentinel alerted.

    SC-3.13.13 · AU-3.3.1 · SI-3.14.6

Each stage maps to specific NIST SP 800-171 controls, automated by the Engine Accelerator and documented in your evidence vault.

The Math

What You Avoid.

CMMC isn't an expense — it's insurance against losing federal revenue. The cost of getting it wrong dwarfs the cost of getting it right.

Failed C3PAO Assessment

$30K – $60K

Reassessment fees, remediation cycles, and lost delivery time when a C3PAO flags a finding the prep should have caught.

DFARS Clawback Liability

Up to Contract Value

False attestation under DFARS 252.204-7012 can trigger contract clawback, debarment, and False Claims Act exposure. The Engine builds the audit trail to defend you.

Delayed Federal Revenue

6+ Months

Most manual CMMC engagements run 6+ months. Every month past your award milestone is a month of deferred contract revenue.

Lost Prime Relationships

Strategic

Primes are now flow-down enforcing CMMC L2 on subs. Losing a passable SPRS score means losing teaming agreements before the award conversation even starts.

Questions

Answers Before You Ask.

How is this different from another CMMC consultant?

Most consultancies deliver policies and let you implement. The Engine Accelerator deploys the controls themselves — Entra hardening, endpoint baselines, Sentinel rules, DLP, Customer Key — and packages evidence as part of the same engagement. You finish ready for a C3PAO assessment, not with a stack of templates.

What if my tenant is complex or messy?

Every engagement scales to tenant complexity. A clean greenfield tenant deploys faster than one with 10 years of legacy GPOs, abandoned admin accounts, and shadow IT. Discovery and remediation effort gets reflected in the proposal — no surprise scope changes mid-engagement.

Do you perform the C3PAO assessment itself?

No. C3PAOs are independent third-party assessors authorized by the Cyber AB — we're not one. We prepare you for the C3PAO assessment, package your evidence, run mock audits, and stay on-call during the actual assessment. You pick the C3PAO; we make sure you pass.

Do you work with primes only, or subcontractors too?

Both. Many of our engagements come through primes that need their subs CMMC-ready. We can engage directly with the sub under a flow-down requirement, or contract through the prime as part of a teaming agreement. Either model works.

What happens after deployment?

Two options. (1) Hand the keys over and walk away — your team takes ownership of operations. (2) Move into the CMMC Managed tier, where we run the 12-month assessment cycle, refresh evidence monthly, tune Sentinel rules, and update your POAM. The latter is what most clients pick.

Is the toolkit something I get to keep?

The deployed environment is yours — configs, policies, evidence vault, documentation. The deployment automation itself remains proprietary; you license the outcomes, not the source. The Engine Accelerator is what makes the fixed-fee model possible.
