            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Leesburg, VA, July 9, 2026, Viderity, Inc., announced today it has successfully completed its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 assessment through RSI Security, an authorized Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization. Results have been recorded in the DoD’s Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS).</p><figure><img alt="Viderity is now CMMC Level 2 Certified!" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*sGuvkGBe49qPKCMoSumXQw.png" /></figure><p>CMMC Level 2 requires full implementation of all 110 security controls under NIST Special Publication 800–171 and is required for organizations that process, store, or transmit Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) on behalf of the Department of Defense. Unlike the self-attestation model that previously applied, CMMC Level 2 requires an independent third-party assessor to verify that controls are not only documented but implemented, followed, and operating as intended across an organization’s people, processes, and technology.</p><p>“Cybersecurity is not a one-time exercise for us,” said Rachel Everett, CEO of Viderity. “This assessment gives our DoD customers and partners independent assurance that Viderity has the operational discipline required to protect sensitive government information, and it reflects the same standard we hold ourselves to across every contract we perform.”</p><p>With CMMC 2.0 requirements now phasing into DoD solicitations and only a small percentage of the Defense Industrial Base having achieved Level 2 to date, certification is increasingly a factor in how prime contractors select small business partners for CUI related work. Viderity’s certification positions the company to continue supporting its current federal and prime contractor relationships and to compete for new CUI related task orders across the government.</p><p><strong>About Viderity, Inc.</strong><br>Viderity, a HUBZone and WOSB-certified professional services firm, delivers solutions in technology, digital transformation, strategy, operations, creative design, events, and communications. With extensive experience and specialized expertise across diverse industries and functions, we align solutions with organizational missions and needs, driving enhanced performance and sustainable value for stakeholders in public and private sectors.
