Preparing for Certification with Confidence

A mock assessment is a crucial step in the process of achieving CMMC Level 2 and HIPAA compliance. By simulating the actual certification process, mock assessments help organizations identify potential gaps in their security posture and make necessary improvements before the official evaluation.

Aethon Security's Mock Assessment Process

Our expert team at Aethon Security conducts comprehensive mock assessments designed to mimic the rigor of a real CMMC Level 2 or HIPAA audit. Our mock assessments are led by a Certified CMMC Assessor (CCA) or Certified HIPAA Privacy Security Expert (CHPSE) and includes the following steps:

  1. Initial Assessment: We begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your organization's current, documented security controls and practices.
  2. Gap Analysis: Our assessors identify areas where your organization may fall short of CMMC Level 2 or HIPAA requirements using the Examine, Interview, Test method.
  3. Mock Audit Simulation: We simulate a real audit, examining your documentation, policies, procedures, and technical controls.
  4. Feedback and Recommendations: Following the mock assessment, we provide detailed feedback and recommendations to address identified gaps and improve your security posture.
