Why Choose Virtual Dojo Over Other CMMC Compliance Tools?
Most compliance platforms were built for SOC 2 or ISO 27001 and retrofitted for CMMC. Virtual Dojo was designed from the ground up for one thing: helping defense contractors achieve and maintain CMMC certification without needing to be a compliance expert.
Here's an honest comparison to help you decide which platform is right for your team.
Built Around All 320 Assessment Objectives
C3PAO assessors evaluate all 320 assessment objectives — not just the 110 controls. Virtual Dojo is built around this reality, with evidence, assignments, and shared responsibility mapped to every objective.
A Living SPRS Score
Your weighted SPRS score updates automatically as you remediate gaps. Invite your C3PAO assessor directly into the platform to review everything when you're ready.
AI That Does the Work
Our AI reviews your policies against CMMC requirements, identifies gaps, and guides remediation. Automated evidence collection scans your existing systems. Pre-built templates mean you're never starting from scratch.

Key Differences That Matter
Virtual Dojo:
-
Purpose-built for CMMC 2.0 — not a SOC 2 tool with CMMC bolted on
-
Tracks compliance at the assessment objective level — the way your assessor does
-
Real-time SPRS score that updates as you close gaps
-
AI-powered remediation guidance specific to CMMC
Other Tools:
-
Built for SOC 2 or ISO first — CMMC added later
-
Track at the 110-practice level only
-
No native SPRS score — calculated manually
-
Generic AI with no CMMC-specific guidance
The Bottom Line. Other tools help you organize documentation. Virtual Dojo is built around the same structure your assessor uses.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about Virtual Dojo? We've got answers.
Yes. Virtual Dojo is structured around the same framework your assessor uses — all 320 assessment objectives. You can track evidence, assignments, and pass/fail status at the objective level, and invite your C3PAO assessor directly into the platform to review everything in one place.
Virtual Dojo connects to your existing security tools — including EDR and SIEM platforms — and automatically pulls evidence against the relevant assessment objectives. Instead of manually gathering screenshots and exports, your evidence is collected and organized continuously in the background.
We provide pre-built templates written specifically for CMMC — not generic security policies with a CMMC crosswalk applied after the fact. Our AI can also review your existing documents and flag gaps, so if you already have policies in place, you're not starting over.
Your SPRS score updates automatically. As you close gaps and mark assessment objectives as satisfied, the platform recalculates your weighted score in real time. You always have a current, accurate picture of your compliance posture — no manual calculations required.
No. Virtual Dojo was specifically designed for teams that aren't compliance experts. Guided workflows, pre-built templates, and AI-powered remediation guidance walk you through the process step by step. That said, if you're working with an RPO or consultant, they can be invited into the platform to work alongside your team.
