The assessment process was spearheaded by A-LIGN, a federal compliance firm that audited VIAVI’s internal protocols to ensure Controlled Unclassified Information remains protected. This certification is a mandatory prerequisite for companies navigating the Defense Industrial Base, serving as a formal validation of the company's security infrastructure.
VIAVI Solutions Secures CMMC Level 2 Cybersecurity Certification
The U.S. Department of Defense requires rigorous cybersecurity standards for its contractors, and VIAVI Solutions has officially cleared that hurdle. The Chandler-based firm achieved CMMC Level 2 certification for its radio test, avionics, and navigation product lines, solidifying its standing as a verified partner for national security and defense operations.
Doug Russell, Senior Vice President of the Aerospace and Defense division, noted that the achievement reflects a broader strategy to safeguard sensitive data. The company plans to extend these security protocols to its Inertial Labs product lines, which were integrated into the VIAVI portfolio following a 2025 acquisition. For the Department of Defense, this certification signals that the company’s systems meet the necessary benchmarks to handle federal contract information without compromising national security interests.
