Defense contractors are adopting AI tools faster than their compliance programs are keeping up. Code generation tools. AI-assisted document drafting. LLMs integrated into workflows. AI-powered IT management platforms. They are moving through the defense supply chain at a pace CMMC was not designed to handle. Translation: - When an employee pastes CUI into ChatGPT or Copilot, they are transmitting CUI to a cloud environment that is not FedRAMP authorized and is outside your CMMC boundary - AI-powered security tools managing in-scope systems are in-scope CMMC assets that must be in the SSP - AI-generated SSP content looks authoritative but may not match your actual environment. Verification is mandatory. - On the opportunity side: automated evidence collection, SSP completeness checking, continuous monitoring, and AI-powered risk prioritization are real - NIST’s Cyber AI Profile maps AI security to CSF 2.0 and is directly relevant to CMMC environments with AI deployments The compliance window for governing AI in your CMMC environment is open. It will not stay open. Link in the comments. #CMMC #AI
