Safeguard Admin Access

CyberQP is a purpose-built Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform designed to help Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT professionals strengthen security, streamline workflows, and ensure compliance. By deploying the full CyberQP solution, partners can directly support the enforcement of several CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) practices, especially those related to Access Control, Identification & Authentication, and Audit & Accountability.

This document outlines the specific CMMC practices that CyberQP helps enforce when fully implemented.


1. Access Control (AC) CyberQP enforces strong access controls across privileged and end-user environments.
CMMC PracticeHow CyberQP Helps: AC.L1-3.1.1CyberQP identifies authorized users, limits system access, and enforces least privilege through Just-in-Time privileged access, credential management, and account restrictions.AC.L1-3.1.2Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) and centralized account management prevent unauthorized access and ensure appropriate access levels.AC.L2-3.1.5Time-limited and role-specific access ensures separation of duties and reduces risk of privilege abuse.AC.L2-3.1.6CyberQP enforces least privilege and provides oversight of accounts with elevated permissions.AC.L2-3.1.7Automated disabling of accounts and temporary access control prevent misuse of non-organizational accounts.

2. Identification and Authentication (IA) CyberQP ensures only verified identities are granted access through passwordless methods and multi-factor authentication.
CMMC PracticeHow CyberQP Helps: IA.L1-3.5.1CyberQP verifies user identities via push-based MFA, codes via SMS/email, or mobile app.IA.L1-3.5.2Enforces unique identification and tracking of all users, especially privileged users.IA.L2-3.5.3Centralized identity verification prevents shared credentials and enforces accountability.IA.L2-3.5.4MFA integration with Microsoft Authenticator and CyberQP app ensures secure login processes.IA.L2-3.5.6Eliminates default passwords through automated password rotation and vault protection.

3. Audit and Accountability (AU) CyberQP provides full visibility and audit trails for forensic analysis and compliance validation.
CMMC PracticeHow CyberQP Helps: AU.L2-3.3.1Maintains complete audit trails for privileged account access, actions, and expiration.AU.L2-3.3.2Logs privileged access and creates automated reports to support incident investigations.AU.L2-3.3.5Secure technician vault enables tracking of all actions performed by individual users.

4. System and Information Integrity (SI) CyberQP enhances security monitoring and account oversight to prevent misuse.
CMMC Practice How CyberQP Helps: SI.L2-3.14.1Monitors privileged accounts for anomalies and alerts on suspicious access behavior.SI.L2-3.14.6Facilitates rapid identification and disabling of accounts in the event of compromise.

CyberQP empowers MSPs and IT providers to meet essential CMMC requirements by enforcing least privilege, securing credentials, verifying user identities, and maintaining audit readiness. As a channel-first, MSP-focused PAM solution, CyberQP is a powerful ally in preparing for and maintaining CMMC compliance. 

 

Built for Operational Efficiency and Security Readiness

Clean up local admin risk in minutes, not days: CyberQP gives you immediate control over endpoint privileges, helping you eliminate excess admin rights, align UAC settings, and prepare environments for secure elevation at scale.

Operational Efficiency: Skip the scripts. Identify, remove, and manage local admin access and UAC settings directly in CyberQP, saving time while strengthening endpoint security.

PAM Readiness: Privileged access works best when environments are clean. This feature streamlines remediation so elevation policies function as intended.

Security-First: Reduce endpoint risk by eliminating unnecessary admin privileges and enforcing consistent UAC controls without disrupting users or workflows.

Take the Next Step Toward Identity-First Security

Local Admin & UAC Remediation is a critical foundation for enforcing least privilege at the endpoint, but it’s only one part of a broader identity-first strategy.
