CMMC Blues
I’ve got them serious #CMMC blues
Hated by every security recluse
CEOs blame me for all their costs
And scream, “Why don’t I sell COTS?”
CMMC didn’t make #cui
We need to see eye to eye
That was an Executive order
I ain’t no greedy hoarder
Not even the DoD
Did this to me
It was NARA
Who took costs farther
But folks see CMMC
As a wound and wanna cauter it.
Yet OMB decided #CUI needed moderate
FIPS came from their lips
Not mine
I didn’t take your dime
That was 199
Forgot about FISMA
Didn’t Ya
Forgot about FISMA
Didn’t Ya
Stop blaming CMMC
For someone’s crime
It’s not me
Not Delta Twenties
Those just pennies
171 in NIST’s baseline
Robbing your bottom line
You see,
Don’t blame CMMC
You fret
Over technical debt But
7012 had the clause
delving its paws
Into your dwindling books You self-attested
and now feel bested
So stop with dirty looks
CMMC didn’t do this
NO complaining on LinkedIn
Instead let this lesson sink in
Grow your SSP
Cut your POA&M at the knees
Don’t blame CMMC
For your lack of
#cybersecurity
It wasn’t me
Forgot about FISMA
Didn’t Ya
Forgot about FISMA
