DIBCAC stands for Defense Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assessment Center.

The Defense Industrial Base Cybersecurity Assessment Center (DIBCAC) performs the government-led assessments that sit above the C3PAO tier — including CMMC Level 3, which adds NIST SP 800-172 enhanced controls.

DIBCAC assessments also produce the authoritative scores that have exposed gaps between self-reported SPRS numbers and reality, as in the LOGZONE case.

The prior schedule placed the DIBCAC-assessed Phase 3 transition on November 10, 2027, but the Department suspended pending and future implementation milestones while it reviews the CMMC program.
