  • Cybersecurity

Ariento is a managed service provider specializing in CMMC compliance for Department of Defense contractors, and an authorized certification assessor. CMMC is the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification that the US Department of Defense requires of its contractors, and Ariento built its whole practice around it. Unusually, it plays both sides of the process: it is a CMMC Level 2 certified managed service provider that helps a contractor get and stay compliant, and it is also an authorized C3PAO, one of a small number of organizations the Department of Defense allows to perform the official certification assessments. It offers managed security, readiness and advisory services, and, through its Enclave One service built on Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud, a turnkey path to CMMC Level 2 where a customer inherits security controls from Ariento. It is also a Microsoft Government partner for GCC, GCC-High and Azure Government. For a defense contractor navigating CMMC, Ariento is a specialist across the whole journey.

Best for

  • Department of Defense contractors and suppliers that must achieve and maintain CMMC compliance.
  • Organizations that want a managed provider to handle the security controls behind CMMC certification.
  • Companies that need to move to Microsoft 365 GCC or GCC-High and Azure Government for compliance.
  • Contractors looking for readiness and advisory help before an official certification assessment.

A business with no Department of Defense compliance obligation has no need for a provider built specifically around CMMC.

What they offer

Managed Security. Managed security services aligned to CMMC, including continuous monitoring, delivered by a CMMC Level 2 certified managed service provider, plus Enclave One, a turnkey managed service on Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud through which a customer inherits security controls toward CMMC Level 2.

Compliance and vCISO. CMMC readiness and advisory services, and official C3PAO certification assessments, from an organization authorized by the Department of Defense to perform them, spreading reassessment across the three-year cycle to maintain compliance.

Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Migration into the Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud, its GCC-High tier, and Azure Government, as an authorized Microsoft Government partner, for organizations with federal compliance requirements.

Good to know

  • Ariento acts both as a managed provider and as an authorized assessor. Understand which role applies to your engagement, since the certification assessment itself is a separate, formal step.
  • Enclave One and GCC-High paths have eligibility requirements. Confirm your organization qualifies and which CMMC level you need.
  • Product names here are the company's own material.

How buying works

The store is the easy part. Staying on the account is the job.

Anyone can show you logos. The reason to buy here is what happens on install night, and on the ticket you open nine months later.
