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.
