Cyber Capability Maturity Model
Cyber Capability Maturity Model Service
Elevate Your Cyber Readiness, One Step at a Time
Achieving cyber resilience isn’t just about technology; it’s about building strong practices, policies, and people. The Cyber Capability Maturity Model (CCMM) is a framework designed to help your organisation assess, improve, and strengthen its cybersecurity practices. With CCMM, you’ll pinpoint gaps, define goals, and track growth in a way that supports both current needs and future security challenges.
What is the Cyber Capability Maturity Model?
- The C2M2 is organised into ten domains, each covering essential cybersecurity activities, such as risk management, incident response, and threat and vulnerability management.
- Within each domain, practices are grouped into four maturity indicator levels (MILs) to indicate progressive levels of maturity: MIL0 to MIL3.
- MIL0 represents an absence of formal practices, while MIL3 signifies highly mature, well-documented, and consistently practiced cybersecurity measures.
Why Choose the Cyber Capability Maturity Model?
The CCMM empowers your organisation to measure where you are, improve where needed, and strengthen every part of your cybersecurity approach. With CCMM, you’ll move from basic, reactive processes to a proactive security stance that reduces risk.
Benefits of Using the Cyber Capability Maturity Model
Measurable Progress
- Track improvements with clear milestones and gain insights on what’s working well.
Continuous Improvement
- CCMM guides you to make ongoing enhancements across your security landscape.
Informed Decisions
- CCMM insights help you set priorities, allocate resources, and justify investments.
Enhanced Compliance
- Align with global security standards and streamline audit preparation.
Key Domains
- Risk Management: Identifying, assessing, and managing risks to
minimize their impact. - Asset Management: Ensuring an accurate and comprehensive
inventory of assets for security tracking. - Vulnerability Management: Proactively identifying and mitigating
vulnerabilities to reduce potential cyber threats. - Incident Response: Establishing robust processes for detecting,
responding to, and recovering from cybersecurity incidents. - Situational Awareness: Maintaining a clear understanding of the
evolving threat landscape. - External Dependency Management: Addressing risks posed by
external partnerships and service providers. - Workforce Management: Developing a skilled cybersecurity workforce
through structured training and role-based responsibilities. - Cybersecurity Program Management: Overseeing the organization’s
cybersecurity activities and ensuring alignment with business
objectives.
Maturity Levels (MILs):
- MIL1: Initial, ad-hoc practices without formal structure or repeatability.
- MIL2: Managed practices with documentation and partial
implementation. - MIL3: Defined, optimized practices that are fully integrated into the
organization's processes and continuously improved.
Implementation and Benefits:
- Organizations use C2M2 to identify current cybersecurity strengths and
gaps and establish improvement priorities based on their unique threat
profiles. - C2M2 supports benchmarking against industry best practices, enabling
organizations to track their cybersecurity progress over time. - This model enhances decision-making by aligning cybersecurity
initiatives with business goals and risk tolerance.
The C2M2 is particularly beneficial for sectors with critical infrastructure, like energy
and finance, but it applies across various industries. It is a flexible, non-prescriptive
model, allowing organizations to tailor practices to their specific needs and
resources.
