AYes, CMMC certification automatically recognizes compliance with NIST SP 800-171 without additional assessment
BNo, the decision to consider NIST SP 800-171 compliance depends on the Cyber AB's discretion
CNo, CMMC certifications are distinct, and compliance with NIST SP 800-171 alone does not grant credit toward CMMC certification
DYes, BayTech can cite its NIST SP 800-171 compliance as evidence to support its CMMC certification
✓ Correct answer: C. No, CMMC certifications are distinct, and compliance with NIST SP 800-171 alone does not grant credit toward CMMC certificationCompliance with NIST SP 800-171 is not automatically accepted in the CMMC certification process. Each certification path must meet the distinct criteria required by CMMC levels, and external frameworks like NIST SP 800-171 do not automatically translate into CMMC compliance without official recognition or policy allowing for such credit.
