Security & Governance Resource Center

Focused, no-fluff templates and frameworks for AI governance,
CMMC readiness, and executive-level security leadership.

Mid-sized organizations face mounting pressure to secure systems, govern emerging technologies, and meet evolving compliance requirements, all while managing lean teams and limited budgets. Ransomware, AI-driven risk, regulatory scrutiny, and third-party dependencies have made technology and security leadership more complex than ever. Leaders need practical guidance to build resilient programs, align with frameworks, and demonstrate defensible risk management to boards, customers, and auditors. Here you’ll find operator-built resources – checklists, playbooks, and starter kits – designed to help security, risk, IT, and compliance teams close gaps and strengthen their programs, all available at no cost to subscribers of our quarterly newsletter.

CMMC Phase 1 Readiness Sprint Checklist

A practical, MSP-friendly checklist for getting GovCon and defense manufacturing clients ready for CMMC Phase 1 without becoming a CMMC shop yourself.

This checklist walks you through the exact milestones Precise Cyber drives during a 30‑day CMMC Phase 1 readiness sprint—scoping, self‑assessment, evidence, remediation planning, and SPRS preparation—delivered under your MSP’s brand. Use it to structure client conversations, qualify who needs help now, and show what “done” looks like before you commit to a full engagement.

You’ll get:

  • A governance‑first view of CMMC Phase 1 that clarifies contracts, scope, and stakes before anyone touches tools.
  • A six‑section milestone checklist you can use in workshops with GovCon and defense manufacturing clients to baseline where they stand today.
  • A clear split between MSP‑owned technical work and Precise‑owned governance and documentation, so you can reduce liability while expanding services.
  • A ready‑made structure for a 30‑day readiness sprint that leads naturally into ongoing governance and fractional CISO support.

Who It’s For:

Best for MSPs and security leaders supporting tier 2/3 defense manufacturers and GovCon subcontractors who need to navigate CMMC Phase 1 self‑assessments, SPRS expectations, and prime pressure—without guessing at governance or signing off on risky scores.
