For organizations seeking to replace ad-hoc FTP, email, or consumer-grade sharing tools, Globalscape EFT provides the enterprise controls needed to meet NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC requirements for managed file transfer. This write-up is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal or compliance advice. Organizations should consult with a registered CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) for official compliance validation.
Introduction The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a unified standard for implementing cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). For organizations handling Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), CMMC compliance is non-negotiable. A critical component of protecting CUI is ensuring secure, auditable, and controlled file transfers—both internally and with external partners.
