BARR Advisory Achieves C3PAO Authorization, Enabling Firm to Perform CMMC Certification Assessments

BARR joins an elite group of firms authorized to perform certification assessments for organizations pursuing CMMC Level 2 compliance.

BARR Advisory, a global cybersecurity and compliance firm, has achieved authorization as a Certified CMMC Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO). The designation allows BARR to perform formal certification assessments for organizations pursuing Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 compliance.

“Our team has deep experience guiding organizations through complex compliance initiatives, and this accreditation allows us to extend that expertise into formal CMMC certification assessment services,” said Cameron Kline, practice leader of attest services at BARR Advisory.

CMMC is a cybersecurity framework developed by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD)—also known as the U.S. Department of War—that outlines security requirements for organizations handling Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). The framework is designed to strengthen cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and protect sensitive government information from evolving threats.
