About Ratel
What We Do
CMMC readiness is where many of our clients find us first. Preparing for certification can feel like navigating a maze built by committee — scoping CUI boundaries, mapping practices to maturity levels, remediating gaps that span policy, process, and technology all at once. We cut through that complexity. From initial gap assessments through remediation planning to audit preparation, Ratel guides organizations toward certification with a clear, structured path rather than guesswork.
But certification is a milestone. It is not the finish line. Our cybersecurity support extends well beyond compliance, covering vulnerability management, incident response planning, security architecture review, and the kind of ongoing advisory work that keeps your posture strong between audits. Threats evolve. Your defenses should too.

Training
Security Support
Security Support
Off-the-shelf training checks a box. It rarely changes behavior. And in the defense supply chain, behavior is where breaches begin — a mishandled CUI file, a credential reused across environments, a phishing email opened because nobody taught the team what a sophisticated lure actually looks like.

Protecting sensitive defense information demands that same tenacity. Adversaries are persistent, and the regulatory landscape shifts constantly. You need a partner that stays in the fight with you, not one that hands over a binder and disappears. Ratel embeds with your team, adapts to your operational reality, and remains engaged long after the assessment report lands.

CMMC & NIST 800-171 Awareness — Translating compliance frameworks into language that resonates beyond the IT department. When everyone understands why the controls exist, adherence stops feeling like friction and starts operating as habit.
