At GracoRoberts, we’re proud to announce that we’ve achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level II, joining fewer than 1% of companies in the Defense Industrial Base with this elite certification.
This milestone reflects our commitment to cybersecurity excellence, supply chain integrity, and trusted partnerships across both defense and commercial aerospace markets.
What Is CMMC Level II and Why It Matters
CMMC Level II is a cybersecurity standard developed by the U.S. Department of Defense to ensure that organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and proprietary data have mature and verifiable security practices in place. Unlike voluntary standards of the past, CMMC compliance is becoming a contractual requirement for many DoD suppliers and is becoming increasingly prevalent across the defense supply base, with growing relevance for commercial aerospace.
Level II is especially significant because it requires the implementation of 110 security controls aligned with NIST SP 800-171 and verification through an independent third-party assessment.
This means companies earning this certification have demonstrated a rigorous, practical, and measurable cybersecurity posture, not just internal self-verification.
Benefits of CMMC Level II Certification for Our Customers
Achieving CMMC Level II brings real value to those who depend on us:
Enhanced Data Protection & Trust
With growing cyber threats across the supply chain, protecting sensitive technical data — from material specifications to proprietary processes — is not optional. CMMC Level II ensures strong access control, incident response planning, and secure handling of customer information.
For aerospace and defense suppliers, non-compliance can result in lost contract opportunities or disqualifications from future bids. Level II certification is increasingly a prerequisite for contract awards, especially where CUI is involved.
Supply Chain Resilience
Today’s aerospace programs often span complex global supply chains. Certification signals to partners and primes that your data and materials are handled securely at every stage, mitigating risk and increasing confidence in program execution.
A Higher Standard of Trust and Accountability
CMMC compliance isn’t a simple checklist — it’s a verified security posture that distinguishes GracoRoberts as a trusted supplier within the defense, commercial, and general aviation supply chains. Whether our customers choose us for technical expertise, personalized service, or a seamless eCommerce experience, certification provides an added layer of assurance and peace of mind.
Why CMMC Matters Across Commercial Aerospace
While CMMC Level II is built for defense programs today, the security standards behind it are increasingly relevant across the commercial aerospace supply chain. Commercial aircraft manufacturers, tier suppliers, and MROs routinely exchange sensitive information that must be protected with the same rigor as defense data.
When working with a CMMC Level II certified distributor, you can count on:
Even when certification isn’t contractually required, partnering with a CMMC Level II certified distributor provides added confidence that sensitive data and program information are handled with proven, defense-grade security practices.
