CPCSC Compliance Readiness Assessment

Structured CPCSC Level 1 and Level 2 readiness assessment aligned to NIST SP 800-171, with gap analysis and audit-ready documentation.

With only 15% of organizations passing NIST 800-171 assessments on their first attempt, the stakes for Canadian defence suppliers are high. Undetected compliance gaps can cost you contracts, credibility, and standing with the Government of Canada.

Your CPCSC Gaps Are Likely Hidden in Plain Sight

Most organizations believe they are closer to compliance than they are. Without a structured assessment across governance, access control, data protection, and incident response, your actual exposure to CPCSC non-compliance remains unknown—and dangerous.

And Your Audit Clock Is Already Running

CPCSC requirements apply to suppliers handling Specified Information for the Government of Canada. If you haven't validated your posture with a defensible, documented assessment, you may be unprepared when compliance is formally required of your organization.

Plurilock's CPCSC Readiness Assessment Is Structured, Defensible, and Comprehensive

Compliance readiness isn't just about checking boxes—it requires evidence, documentation, and a clear remediation path. Plurilock evaluates your current state across all critical domains, from access control and data protection to physical security and third-party risk, then delivers a prioritized roadmap with the SSP, POA&M, and executive briefing materials you need to move forward with confidence.
  • Structured Readiness Assessment

    A formal evaluation of your current security posture mapped directly to CPCSC Level 1 or Level 2 and NIST SP 800-171 control requirements.
  • Risk-Based Gap Analysis

    Identified control gaps are prioritized by risk level, giving organizations a clear view of their most critical compliance deficiencies first.
  • SSP and POA&M Delivery

    Plurilock produces or reviews a System Security Plan and Plan of Action and Milestones to support audit-ready documentation and remediation tracking.
  • Prioritized Remediation Roadmap

    A sequenced remediation plan guides organizations from identified gaps to compliant controls with defined milestones and measurable progress tracking.
  • Tiered Engagement Options

    Three engagement tiers cover Level 1 readiness, Level 2 readiness, or full readiness plus hands-on remediation support to match organizational need.
  • Broad Domain Coverage

    Assessment spans nine control domains including access control, data protection, incident response, logging, and third-party risk across people, process, and technology.
  • Expert Staffing Model

    Each engagement is staffed with a lead Security Architect and one to two Security Consultants, delivering 120 to 200 hours of focused assessment effort.
  • Executive Stakeholder Briefing

    An executive summary and stakeholder briefing translates technical findings into business-level risk context for leadership decision-making and audit preparation.
  • CMMC Alignment Support

    The assessment framework supports organizations aligning CPCSC efforts with NIST 800-171 or United States CMMC requirements for cross-border compliance.
  • Defence Supply Chain Focus

    Designed for suppliers in defence, aerospace, manufacturing, and professional services that handle Specified Information for the Government of Canada.
