Safran Federal Systems Achieves CMMC Level 2 Certification, Ensuring Uninterrupted Support for Defense Customers
ROCHESTER, NY - June 25, 2026
Safran Federal Systems, a trusted provider of positioning, navigation and timing solutions for U.S. federal and defense operations, Thursday announced it has achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2, positioning the company among an early wave of Defense Industrial Base suppliers to meet this critical compliance benchmark ahead of broader enforcement deadlines. The certification ensures Safran customers experience no disruption in support and that new program opportunities can move forward without delays, reinforcing Safran's role as a mission-ready partner that customers can bring into sensitive programs without friction.
CMMC Level 2 requires organizations to implement and demonstrate adherence to the 110 security practices outlined in NIST SP 800-171, covering areas including access control, incident response, risk management, and system and communications protection. Achieving certification through an accredited third-party assessment confirms that Safran has the people, processes, and technology in place to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) entrusted to the company by government agencies.
"We didn't wait for compliance to become a requirement — we moved early because our customers depend on us to be ready," said Craig Czajka, Chief Security Officer, Safran Federal Systems. "CMMC Level 2 certification is a reflection of our team's dedication and our broader commitment to investing in the capabilities our customers need. We take that responsibility seriously, and we'll continue to stay ahead so they never have to worry about whether Safran can support their objectives."
"This milestone changes the conversations we're able to have. It means we can pursue sensitive work without compliance being a gating issue — and for those who are already working with us, it's confirmation that Safran is a partner they can bring deeper into their projects without hesitation," said Trevor Dougherty, Vice President of Sales, Safran Federal Systems.
As the Defense Department phases in CMMC requirements across the defense supply chain, Safran's early certification reflects the company's drive to help its customers execute their missions with confidence. It is one more way Safran is positioning itself as a supplier the defense community can rely on now and as program requirements evolve.
