CMMC Section 3.2 (Awareness and Training) represents a layered compliance framework where each level builds upon the previous. Understanding this dependency chain is essential for creating policies that satisfy not just the surface requirements, but the underlying intent and assessment criteria.
CMMC functions as an auditable implementation of NIST SP 800-171, which itself adapts NIST SP 800-53 controls for non-federal organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Section 3.2 specifically addresses awareness and training requirements, ensuring personnel understand security risks and receive role-appropriate training.
Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations. Section 3.2 establishes requirements for security awareness and training, directly mapping to CMMC Level 2 requirements AT.2.1 through AT.2.4.
NIST SP 800-171A provides the assessment procedures used by CMMC assessors. For Section 3.2, assessors examine policy documentation, training records, and evidence of implementation. The assessment verifies that organizations have not only created policies but have operationalized them through actual training delivery and record-keeping.
Assessing Security Requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information. Provides detailed assessment procedures for each 800-171 requirement, including objective evidence criteria for Section 3.2 controls.
NIST SP 800-171 Section 3.2 derives from the Awareness and Training (AT) control family in NIST SP 800-53. The mapping includes AT-1 (Policy and Procedures), AT-2 (Literacy Training and Awareness), AT-3 (Role-Based Training), and AT-4 (Training Records). Understanding these foundational controls ensures policies address both the adapted requirements in 800-171 and the underlying security principles from 800-53.
Security and Privacy Controls for Information Systems and Organizations. The AT control family (AT-1 through AT-4) provides the foundation for 800-171 Section 3.2, adapted for non-federal organizations.
NIST SP 800-171 controls fall into three categories that affect how they're implemented and assessed:
Section 3.2 includes controls from all three categories, meaning effective policies must address derived requirements, organizational responsibilities, and referenced standards.
Several NIST publications provide essential context for Section 3.2 implementation:
Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework). Defines cybersecurity roles, tasks, and knowledge/skills/abilities (KSAs) that inform role-based training requirements. Essential for understanding what training is appropriate for different personnel categories.
Building an Information Technology Security Awareness and Training Program. Provides guidance on developing comprehensive security awareness and training programs, including program structure, content development, and delivery methods.
Additional standards referenced in 800-171 context include guidance on insider threat awareness, security control implementation, and risk management—all of which inform training content and delivery requirements.
AT-LMS maps the complete dependency chain: CMMC Level 2 AT.2.1-AT.2.4 → NIST SP 800-171 Section 3.2 → NIST SP 800-171A assessment procedures → NIST SP 800-53 AT control family → Derived/NFO/Directly Referenced control categorization → Supporting standards (800-181, 800-50, etc.). This comprehensive mapping ensures generated policies address every requirement at each level, from the highest CMMC assessment criteria down to foundational NIST controls and referenced implementation guidance.
