Cyber AB CMMC-CCP Exam - Topic 1 Question 10 Discussion

Understanding the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP) PhasesTheCMMC Assessment Process (CAP)consists ofthree primary phases:

Phase 1 - Planning(Pre-assessment activities)

Phase 2 - Conducting the Assessment(Evidence collection and analysis)

Phase 3 - Reporting and Finalizing Results

DuringPhase 3, the Assessment Teamreviews evidenceto confirm if anyLimited Practice Deficiency Correctionshave been successfully implemented.

Scoring Practices in Phase 3The CAP document specifies that a practice can bescored as METif:

The deficiency identified in Phase 2 has been fully corrected before final scoring.

Sufficient evidence is provided to demonstrate compliance with the CMMC requirement.

The correction is notmerely plannedbutfully implemented and validatedby the assessors.

Since the evidence shows thatdeficiencies have been corrected, the correct score isMET.

B . POA&M (Plan of Action & Milestones)Incorrect. APOA&M (Plan of Action and Milestones)is usedonly when a deficiency remains unresolved. Since the deficiency is already corrected, this option does not apply.

C . NOT METIncorrect. A practice is scoredNOT METonly if the deficiency hasnotbeen corrected by the end of the assessment.

D . NOT APPLICABLEIncorrect. A practice is markedNOT APPLICABLE (N/A)only if it doesnot apply to the organization's environment, which is not the case here.

Why the Other Answers Are Incorrect

CMMC Assessment Process (CAP) Document-- Defines scoring criteria for MET, NOT MET, and POA&M.

CMMC Official ReferenceThus,option A (MET) is the correct answer, as the deficiencies have been corrected before final scoring.
