Built for the long haul
When you switch MSPs, you restart the audit. Choose wisely, once. Three Fours is built to be your partner for the full journey — and every renewal after.
No one does this alone
CMMC compliance takes an ecosystem: auditors, advisors, cloud providers, and MSPs. We know each partner's role — and we play ours well without overreaching.
The clock is running
Mandatory compliance requirements began phasing in November 2025. Full enforcement arrives November 2027. The window to get ahead of this is now.
The landscape

Most companies are behind. Very few MSPs can actually help.

Companies in the Defense Industrial Base have known this mandate was coming for years — but the complexity, cost, and sheer unfamiliarity of the process has left most unprepared. There's real fear in this market, and real consequences for non-compliance.

"We've learned that most companies don't fully understand the journey — and their existing MSP often doesn't either."

That's exactly why Three Fours was built. Not to sell technology. To be a trusted, transparent guide who understands every step — and every stake.

What we provide

Three pillars. One integrated platform. Built for compliance from the ground up.

CMMC compliance isn't a product you purchase — it's a state you achieve and maintain through a coordinated technical and operational platform. Here's how Three Fours delivers.

Pillar 01
4Technology
Azure GCC-High environments, endpoint security, identity hardening, SIEM logging, vulnerability management, and disaster recovery — all managed as one cohesive system. No patching together disparate vendors.

Pillar 02
4Guidance
GRC tooling with evidence automation, vCISO advisory coordination, Shared Responsibility Matrices, POAM management, and a client-facing trust center. Documentation that proves — not just claims — compliance at every stage.

Pillar 03
4Protection
24/7 SOC threat monitoring and response, continuous compliance maintenance, and mandatory government incident reporting within the required 24-hour window. When a security event happens, you need a partner who responds — not a policy document.

The compliance path

A mapped path through unmapped territory.

Most organizations entering the CMMC process feel like they're navigating without a trail map. The requirements are real, the timeline is firm, and the consequences of getting it wrong — a failed audit, a lost contract — are severe.

Three Fours has built a structured, phased path through the complexity. We know every obstacle. We've developed systems to navigate each one faster than the industry average — with transparency at every step.

01
Gap Assessment & Planning Months 1–2
We map your current environment against all 110 CMMC Level 2 controls, identify gaps, and build a Shared Responsibility Matrix with every partner clearly assigned. You leave knowing exactly where you stand — not just roughly.
02
Environment Build & Remediation Months 2–6
Azure GCC-High migration, policy documentation, GRC tool deployment, and systematic gap remediation — all executed in parallel to compress the timeline. Our productized delivery approach means no reinventing the wheel for each client.
03
Mock Audit & Certification Months 6–12
An internal readiness review before the formal C3PAO audit — so there are no surprises on assessment day. Three Fours clients typically reach CMMC Level 2 certification in 12–14 months, roughly twice as fast as the industry average.
04
Continuous Maintenance Ongoing
Certification is not a finish line — it's a commitment. Three Fours provides 24/7 SOC monitoring, continuous compliance management, annual reassessment support, and evolving control updates as CMMC standards are refined. Your compliance never lapses.

We don't grade our own homework
Many MSPs blur into the audit and advisory roles — creating an accountability gap that benefits them, not you. Three Fours is your MSP. Your C3PAO audits independently. No conflicts, no questions.
Speed without cutting corners
Our productized delivery model compresses timelines without sacrificing quality. Operational readiness in 6–9 months. Full certification in 12–14. The evidence is automated. The audit trail is airtight.
Transparent accountability at every layer
You get a Shared Responsibility Matrix that clearly shows who owns what — across every partner in the ecosystem. No finger-pointing. No surprises during audit. Just clarity.
A platform partners trust to refer
C3PAOs and vCISOs recommend Three Fours because we make their clients successful — without encroaching on their role. We're the MSP they've been looking for. Referrals flow naturally in a healthy ecosystem.
The community

Nobody does this alone — and the good ones know it.

The CMMC compliance community is remarkably collaborative. Auditors, advisors, cloud providers, and MSPs all need each other — and the most successful outcomes come when every partner respects their role and stays in their lane. That's the Three Fours ethos.

Audit Layer
C3PAO — The Assessor
Certified Third-Party Assessment Organizations conduct the formal CMMC audit. Three Fours works alongside C3PAOs — never competing with them — ensuring clients are fully ready before assessment day.
Managed Services
Three Fours — The MSP
We deliver the integrated technical platform: Azure GCC-High, 24/7 SOC, endpoint, identity, SIEM, and 83 native controls. The backbone of your compliant environment — managed and monitored continuously.
Advisory Layer
vCISO — The Advisor
Policy documentation, strategy, and compliance guidance. We collaborate closely with vCISO partners without trespassing on their role. Clear lines of accountability benefit every party — especially the client.
Infrastructure
CSP — Cloud Provider
FedRAMP-authorized cloud infrastructure via Microsoft Azure GCC-High. Our platform is natively integrated — not bolted on — eliminating interoperability risk and simplifying the compliance boundary.
Security Validation
MSSP — Security Tester
Independent penetration testing and security validation, separate from Three Fours by design. Objective assessment of the controls we manage provides a check that protects everyone — most importantly, you.
Security Operations
SOC — Threat Response
24/7 Security Operations Center integrated into the Three Fours platform. When a security event occurs, government reporting must happen within 24 hours — and remediation must begin immediately. Our SOC makes that possible.
Ready to begin

Your compliance journey starts with a conversation.

Whether you're just learning what CMMC requires, preparing for an audit, or trying to understand why your current MSP isn't cutting it — we're here to help you find clarity. No pressure. No jargon.
