Another 279 companies achieved CMMC Level 2 certification in June 2026, bringing the total to 1,717 certified organizations.

That's a record month and far ahead of DoD's original projections. But the data also shows something surprising: the industry still isn't using all of its available assessment capacity.

In this episode, we break down the latest Cyber AB numbers, explain our assessment capacity methodology, and discuss why contractor readiness, not assessor availability, remains the biggest constraint on CMMC adoption.

Topics covered:

• June 2026 CMMC Level 2 certification numbers

• Available CMMC assessment capacity

• Why the assessor shortage narrative doesn't match the data

• The connection between CMMC readiness and DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance

• What these trends could mean for the rest of the phased rollout
