    Foundational safeguarding for FCI — 17 practices, 8 machine-assessable.

    CMMC Level 1 (Foundational)

    The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 1 covers the 17 "basic safeguarding" practices for Federal Contract Information (FCI). Gadriel Code contributes evidence for roughly half; the rest are procedural.

    IMPORTANT

    ComplianceMapping has no cmmc key, so direct (Tier-1) mapping is not possible. Predicated controls rely on rule_id_patterns and pillar fallback tiers, plus manual review.

    What Gadriel evaluates

    The predicated half touches the practices tied to source-code behavior:

    • AC (Access Control) — authN/authZ, information flow.
    • IA (Identification & Authentication) — user identification, credential handling.
    • MP (Media Protection) — data-handling patterns in code.
    • SC (System & Communications Protection) — transport security, boundary protection.
    • SI (System & Information Integrity) — flaw remediation, malicious-code protection surfaces.

    Procedural practices (physical security, personnel, audit-and-accountability policy) render as NOT ASSESSABLE.
