KTL Solutions, a Microsoft Solutions Partner, Managed Service Provider (MSP), and provider of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) assessment services, is proud to announce that it successfully guided Akiak Technology LLC through the process of achieving a CMMC Level 2 assessment. Akiak Technology, LLC is among the first tribally owned small businesses to achieve CMMC Level 2 certification.
KTL is a U.S.-based Managed Service Provider (MSP) with Certified CMMC Assessors (CCAs) on staff, focused on helping DoD contractors meet and maintain federal cybersecurity requirements with confidence, transforming compliance challenges into strategic advantages. Akiak Technology connected with KTL at the start of their CMMC certification journey in December 2024, when the CMMC rule took effect. Their goal was to be fully certified ahead of the DoD’s planned inclusion of CMMC requirements in select contracts by late 2025.
“This was not just about compliance. It was about enabling Akiak Technology to step confidently into the defense sector with a secure and validated infrastructure,” said Timothy Lally, President and Owner. “We’re proud that our technical support helped guide a tribally owned small business through a complex compliance journey, knowing their success directly contributes to economic development in the remote community of Akiak, AK.”
KTL Solutions started by providing technical guidance leading to the deployment of a FedRAMP-certified Microsoft Government Community Cloud High (GCC High) enclave for Akiak Technology, while also supporting audit readiness. By leveraging AI integration tools, the team was able to centralize risk identification, streamline compliance and audit processes, and enhance overall business analysis and review efforts. “We supported Akiak Technology throughout their C3PAO assessment process, including the interview phase and control testing and overall helping to navigate the effectiveness of implemented security controls,” said Lally. “Akiak Technology’s perfect score of 110 demonstrated our expertise and commitment to their CMMC level 2 achievement.”
