Insight Assurance Named Authorized C3PAO, Expanding Federal Cybersecurity Oversight Capabilities

TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Insight Assurance, a globally trusted provider of cybersecurity audit and compliance services, proudly announces its official designation as a Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization (C3PAO) by the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Accreditation Body (CMMC-AB). With this recognition, Insight Assurance is now authorized to conduct official CMMC assessments for organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain.

This significant milestone places Insight Assurance among a select group of firms entrusted to evaluate an organization's cybersecurity maturity against the rigorous standards of CMMC 2.0—a critical requirement for DoD contractors to help protect sensitive government data and meet federal contract obligations.

"Becoming an Authorized C3PAO reinforces our commitment to delivering trusted, high-quality cybersecurity assessments," said Adam Glover, Director of Audit Services at Insight Assurance. "For organizations navigating the evolving defense landscape, we're not just a provider—we're a partner committed to clarity, confidence, and compliance."

Supporting the Defense Ecosystem

Insight Assurance has a longstanding track record of guiding clients through complex U.S. and international cybersecurity frameworks. With deep expertise across SOC, ISO, HITRUST, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and CMMC, the firm provides end-to-end audit and attestation services tailored to the evolving needs of regulated industries.

With the addition of formal CMMC assessment capabilities, Insight Assurance now plays an essential role in the federal contractor ecosystem—helping organizations fulfill one of the DoD's most critical cybersecurity mandates.

Impartial and Authorized

As required by the Cyber AB, Insight Assurance maintains a strict separation between advisory and assessment functions to uphold independence and avoid conflicts of interest. Organizations may engage Insight Assurance for self-assessment readiness services or authorized CMMC assessments alongside mock-assessment services—but not both concurrently.

The firm's C3PAO designation reflects its adherence to high standards of integrity, process discipline, and technical competence within the CMMC ecosystem.

What This Means for DoD Contractors

Whether you are just beginning your CMMC journey or preparing for an official assessment, Insight Assurance is now fully authorized to conduct the audit that determines your certification status. The team brings a rigorous, objective approach backed by years of multi-framework experience and a reputation for delivering excellence without unnecessary complexity.
