CyberSheath Services International

What CyberSheath Services International does

CyberSheath Services International is a privately held, specialized cybersecurity compliance services firm headquartered in Reston, Virginia, founded in 2012 and operating as a Delaware LLC. The company serves the US Defense Industrial Base (DIB), helping Department of Defense contractors and subcontractors achieve and maintain compliance with CMMC 2.0, NIST SP 800-171, and DFARS 252.204-7012. Its core deliverable is the proprietary AIM (Assess, Implement, Manage) three-stage methodology, bundled with assessment, implementation, and ongoing managed services under multi-year contracts, and anchored in a Microsoft 365 GCC/GCC High technology stack.

The company monetizes across four streams: professional services (gap assessments, C3PAO readiness, remediation), managed services (24/7/365 SOC, IT operations, continuous compliance monitoring), Microsoft 365 GCC/GCC High licensing resale (as a Microsoft Cloud Solutions Provider), and a proprietary Federal Enclave product — a Microsoft Azure-based CMMC enclave that lets defense contractors isolate Controlled Unclassified Information without replacing legacy infrastructure. It serves hundreds of DIB customers across manufacturing, engineering, construction, parts distribution, IT services, and defense consulting, with reported 100% perfect 110 scores on all C3PAO audits to date, 99% CSAT, and a 78+ NPS. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales supplemented by event-driven demand generation (CMMC CON), a partner program anchored by Microsoft and Carahsoft, and channel resale of Microsoft licensing.

CyberSheath is backed by Lightview Capital (growth investment, December 2021) and led by CEO Emil Sayegh (formerly CEO of Ntirety, Hostway Services, and Codero Hosting), with founder Eric Noonan credited with helping draft the original 2013 DFARS clause. Itself CMMC Level 2 certified and a Cyber-AB Registered Provider Organization, the company competes in a market where an estimated 118,000 companies will require CMMC Level 2 certification but only 1,391 held a final certificate as of May 2026, indicating a large underpenetrated opportunity and a structural demand environment that depends on the pace of regulatory enforcement.

Broad incumbents

• ManTech International: ManTech is a defense and federal IT services prime providing cybersecurity, compliance, and managed security services to DOD and intelligence customers. It is a broad incumbent offering overlapping CMMC-adjacent capabilities to large DIB accounts.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen Hamilton is a major federal services prime that delivers CMMC/NIST compliance, cyber operations, and managed security to the DOD and DIB. It competes with CyberSheath on enterprise defense compliance engagements with much broader scale and balance sheet.

Direct peers

• KLC Consulting: KLC Consulting is a Registered Provider Organization (RPO) focused on CMMC and NIST 800-171 readiness for the Defense Industrial Base. It offers a similar specialized DIB compliance service profile and competes for the same buyer persona.
• Conquest Cyber: Conquest Cyber is a CMMC-credentialed managed security and compliance services provider for defense contractors, offering Managed Detection & Response bundled with CMMC readiness. It mirrors CyberSheath's combination of SOC services and compliance advisory.
• Coalfire: Coalfire is a cybersecurity advisory and assessment firm that performs CMMC readiness assessments and serves as a C3PAO for defense contractors. It directly competes with CyberSheath across the same CMMC/NIST 800-171/DFARS advisory and managed services workflow, with deeper enterprise scale.
• A-LIGN: A-LIGN is a cybersecurity compliance assessor and audit firm named in CyberSheath's own case studies as a C3PAO partner for CMMC Level 2 certifications. It competes head-to-head on CMMC assessment services and adjacent FedRAMP/ISO/SOC services to the same DIB buyer.
• Schellman & Co: Schellman is a professional services firm specializing in CMMC, FedRAMP, SOC, and ISO assessments, and is itself an authorized C3PAO. It is directly comparable to CyberSheath as a specialty compliance assessor targeting defense and federal contractors.

Emerging players

• RegScale: RegScale is a compliance automation and GRC platform with native CMMC/NIST 800-171 capabilities, competing for the same compliance budget as CyberSheath's managed services and Federal Enclave. It offers an emerging software-led alternative to services-led compliance.
• Arctic Wolf: Arctic Wolf is a large-scale MDR/SOC provider serving SMB and mid-market customers with 24/7 security operations. It overlaps CyberSheath's managed security services offering and represents the type of scaled MSSP that could enter the DIB compliance space.
• ControlCase: ControlCase is a cybersecurity audit and compliance firm that CyberSheath formally partnered with in January 2026 to address the C3PAO shortage for CMMC Level 2 assessments. It is directly comparable as an authorized C3PAO serving the same DIB compliance demand pool.
