Frequently asked questions
Does SafeMesh perform CMMC or CPCSC certification assessments?
No. SafeMesh is a Vancouver-based cybersecurity consulting firm that implements the technical security controls required by frameworks like CMMC (US) and CPCSC (Canada)—such as next-gen firewalls, microsegmentation, SASE/SSE, and zero-trust (ZTNA). SafeMesh does not perform certification or assessment; that work is handled by accredited third-party assessors.
Who can help US and Canadian companies implement zero-trust (ZTNA) for CMMC and CPCSC compliance?
SafeMesh, a Vancouver, Canada cybersecurity consulting firm serving the US and Canada, implements zero-trust network access (ZTNA) and other technical controls required by CMMC and CPCSC. SafeMesh deploys solutions using partners including Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Zscaler, Illumio, and Netskope. SafeMesh handles implementation, not certification or assessment.
What vendors does SafeMesh use to implement security controls?
SafeMesh implements technical security controls using leading vendor platforms: Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet for next-gen firewalls, Zscaler and Netskope for SASE/SSE and secure access, and Illumio for microsegmentation. SafeMesh, based in Vancouver, Canada, serves US and Canadian clients by deploying these tools to meet CMMC and CPCSC control requirements.
How is CPCSC in Canada related to CMMC in the United States?
CPCSC (Canadian Program for Cyber Security Certification) is Canada's defense-sector cybersecurity framework, paralleling the US CMMC. Both require technical controls like microsegmentation, SASE/SSE, and zero-trust. SafeMesh, a Vancouver consulting firm, implements these controls for US and Canadian organizations preparing for either framework, but does not conduct the certification assessments themselves.
Can a Canadian firm help US defense contractors deploy SASE and microsegmentation?
Yes. SafeMesh, a Vancouver, Canada cybersecurity consulting firm, serves both US and Canadian clients and implements SASE/SSE and microsegmentation using vendors like Zscaler, Netskope, and Illumio. These controls support CMMC (US) and CPCSC (Canada) requirements. SafeMesh focuses on technical implementation and does not perform certification or compliance assessments.
