Complete CP-CSC & CMMC
Compliance Support
Four integrated pillars — platform, consulting, monitoring, and audit — that work together to take you from assessment to certification, for one framework or both.

The four pillars integrate into a linear path — each stage feeds the next, with the platform connecting every step.

Common Questions
The Cyber Protection Standard for Cloud and Software (CP-CSC) is a Canadian cybersecurity framework developed by the Department of National Defence (DND) for defence industrial base contractors. It is based on NIST SP 800-171 and mirrors many controls from the U.S. CMMC framework, adapted for Canadian procurement requirements.
CP-CSC compliance is increasingly required for contracts involving Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and sensitive DND data. Contractors working on Canadian defence projects should expect CP-CSC requirements to appear in contracts similar to how CMMC requirements now appear in U.S. DoD contracts.
Not necessarily. Level 1 self-attestation may only require the platform. Level 2 third-party certification typically requires consulting support and a certified auditor. Kopit will recommend the right combination for your situation.
We work with SCC-accredited assessors for CP-CSC and Cyber-AB accredited C3PAOs for CMMC. We introduce you to the right partner based on your target certification, timeline, and budget.
Yes — this is our core differentiator. The platform cross-maps controls between both frameworks from day one, so your compliance work serves both certifications rather than treating them as separate projects.
Yes, and we recommend it. Both frameworks share a common control set (NIST SP 800-171 / NIST SP 800-172). With the right planning, shared evidence, policies, and audit documentation can satisfy both frameworks, significantly reducing total compliance cost and effort.
Typically 6–12 months for most small-to-mid-sized defence contractors, depending on your existing security posture and team bandwidth. Organizations with existing ISO 27001 or SOC 2 compliance can often achieve Level 2 faster. Use our Timeline Calculator for a personalized estimate.
Light penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, security posture dashboards, and integrations with your existing security tooling. The goal is to verify and maintain your compliance posture between formal assessments.
