Federal contracts require proven cybersecurity compliance, and Aalyria needed a program that could stand up to a future audit while its engineering work kept moving. To close that gap, Aalyria partnered with Echelon Risk + Cyber to build a governance program backed by real evidence and hands-on technical support.
“Echelon brought real structure and momentum to our CMMC effort. They built the System Security Plan with us, organized our evidence, and rolled up their sleeves on the technical side.”
- Brian Barrit, Chief Technology Officer, Aalyria
In this case study, you'll discover how Aalyria:
- Authored a complete CMMC policy suite and System Security Plan aligned to NIST SP 800-171
- Centralized control status and evidence tracking in Vanta to support a future third-party assessment
- Closed technical and procedural gaps through embedded security engineering, not just documentation
- Validated response readiness through a scenario-based tabletop exercise and CMMC training
The results:
A documented program with the evidence to back it up, a workforce trained and ready, and a foundation built to sustain control effectiveness well beyond the initial engagement.
