Remembering the Why Behind CMMC

CMMC conversations usually get lost in regulations and timelines, but Rob Teague sits down with Robert Hill to ask the question everyone forgets: why does this data need to be protected in the first place?

Robert shares the story of a five person shop in South Texas making a single gasket for the F 35, and how one small out of tolerance change from a supply chain breach could ground an entire fleet. The conversation covers Phase 2 confusion and cost, whether contractors should keep pressing forward or pause, and why file integrity basics (like checking a hash) often matter more than the biggest, most expensive security stacks. If you needed a reminder of what CMMC is actually protecting, this is it.
