Achieve CMMC Level 2 with GitLab Dedicated for Government

The U.S. Department of Defense's release of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Final Rule and new guidance on "FedRAMP equivalency" has significantly increased compliance costs for Defense Industrial Base (DIB) companies, requiring them to adhere to stringent security controls and undergo audits by Third-Party Assessment Organizations. These changes have complicated risk management for companies focused on supporting defense efforts. However, GitLab Dedicated for Government offers a solution by providing FedRAMP Moderate Authorization, allowing DIB companies to use the platform without additional audits, thus reducing compliance impact and cost. The Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement requires that any external cloud service provider used by a contractor must meet FedRAMP Moderate security requirements, and GitLab's platform meets these needs. Despite the reduced burden from FedRAMP authorization, DIB contractors still have responsibilities under a Shared Responsibility Matrix, which outlines which security controls are managed by GitLab and which are the contractor's responsibility, aiding in meeting CMMC Level 2 compliance while focusing on their core mission.
