CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) is built around NIST SP 800-171, but it goes further:
Level 1 — Foundational cyber hygiene
Level 2 — Advanced, assessment-based (C3PAO audited)
Level 3 — Expert-level protection (DoD-led)
For most organisations in the defence supply chain, Level 2 is the target — and that means:
✔ Independent assessment by a C3PAO
✔ Demonstrable, operating controls
✔ Clear handling of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
✔ Evidence that is consistent, traceable, and defensible
CMMC failure rarely comes from lack of effort — it comes from false confidence.
CMMC exposes gaps that traditional compliance approaches miss.
Black Kyte 17 operates as an independent assurance function — not just a consultancy.
We don’t ask “does this exist?”
We test “does this hold up under assessment?”
Lead Auditors with global recognition
We don’t prepare you to pass on paper.
We prepare you to stand up under scrutiny.



KyteAssure is the assurance platform built for organisations that need more than compliance — they need systems that withstand audit.
It brings together implementation, maintenance, and audit readiness across ISO 27001, ISO 42001, CMMC, Cyber Essentials, Cyber Essentials Plus, and DCC into one operational environment.
No spreadsheets. No guesswork. No last-minute panic.

Most platforms help you look compliant.
KyteAssure makes you defensible.
It’s built by lead auditors and operational security specialists who know exactly:
what gets tested
where organisations fail
and what “audit-ready” actually means
The Outcome
✔ Controls that operate as intended
✔ Evidence that stands up to scrutiny
✔ Clear, defensible system boundaries
✔ Confidence walking into any audit
Built for Reality
Whether you’re targeting ISO certification, CMMC compliance, or government frameworks, KyteAssure ensures your system isn’t just implemented — it’s proven.
