What Evolved Cyber Solutions LLC does

Evolved Cyber, LLC is a privately held cybersecurity consulting and training firm founded in 2015 and headquartered in Ellicott City, Maryland, focused exclusively on the Defense Industrial Base and the CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) compliance ecosystem. The company delivers a portfolio of CMMC assessments, consulting, and training services, including Gap Assessments and Mock Assessments led by certified Lead CCAs following the CMMC Assessment Process (CAP), a Virtual CMMC Compliance Officer (vCCO) managed service, and instructor-led CCA and CCP certification courses delivered through the Evolved Cyber Academy learning platform. Its flagship productized offering is the CMMC Assessment Success System, a 75+ hour bundle combining CMMC Control Mastery (covering all 110 Level 2 practices) and a 2.5-day assessor-led CMMC Level 2 Readiness Intensive, anchored to 32 CFR Part 170, DFARS, and NIST SP 800-171.

The firm's go-to-market is primarily sales-led and event-driven, combining content marketing (blog, SEO via the learning platform) with a 15-minute discovery-call CTA that qualifies prospects for consulting, assessment, or training engagements. Pricing spans one-time fixed-price assessments (virtual delivery with optional on-site surcharges), subscription-style multi-year training bundles (with introductory promotional pricing around $1,719 against a $2,295 retail), and custom quotes for group training and C3PAO partner licensing. Customers are segmented across four groups: Defense contractors (OSCs) pursuing Level 2 certification as the primary segment, plus MSPs/MSSPs/vCISOs, internal IT and compliance leaders, and consultants or assessor candidates. The company holds CAICO Authorized Training Provider (ATP) status, the gated credential authorizing official CCP and CCA course delivery, and maintains a leadership team anchored by President Brian Hubbard, whose prior roles include 20 years at Booz Allen Hamilton, leadership of Edwards Performance Solutions' CMMC practice, and contractor support to NIST on the development of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
