Summary
This post details how GitLab's features, including RBAC, custom roles, audit events, session duration limits, IP address restrictions, AWS PrivateLink, SAML SSO, SCIM, and MFA, can be leveraged to meet CMMC Level 2 compliance requirements. It maps specific CMMC/NIST controls to GitLab functionalities like SAST, IaC scanning, DAST, container scanning, dependency scanning, and vulnerability reporting. It also highlights the integration of GitLab Duo with Amazon Q for security scanning within merge requests.
