CMMC Level 2 Without the Cloud.
Defense contractors need CMMC compliance. Moving CUI to GCC High is expensive and disruptive. One on-premise appliance secures CUI flows, documents controls, and prepares your C3PAO assessment.
Secure CUI. Document Controls. Pass the Assessment.
Five capabilities that map directly to CMMC Level 2 requirements — all on-premise, no GCC High migration required.
CUI Enclave Isolation
Create an isolated CUI enclave on your existing network. Overlay micro-segmentation separates CUI-handling systems from general IT without VLAN restructuring or re-cabling.
NIST 800-171 Control Mapping
Access Gate capabilities map directly to NIST 800-171 controls required for CMMC Level 2. Assessment-ready documentation generated on demand — no manual control evidence gathering.
Continuous Asset Inventory
Real-time discovery and classification of every device that touches CUI. Automated asset inventory documentation satisfies CMMC asset management requirements.
Identity-Based Access Control
Enforce least-privilege access to CUI systems per user and role. MFA enforced before any CUI session. Full audit trail of who accessed what — and when.
On-Premise — No GCC High Required
All CUI processing stays on-site. No migration to GCC High or cloud enclave. The Access Gate gives you a compliant, auditable environment within your existing facility.
Trusted by defense contractors across the supply chain.
on-site CUI data flows, from engineering designs to production plans, aligned with CMMC Level 2 compliance.
“The Trout Access Gate gave us a clear path to CMMC compliance without disrupting our manufacturing operations.”

Common Questions About CMMC Compliance.
GCC High migration required. The Access Gate meets CMMC Level 2 requirements entirely on-premise within your existing facility.
No. GCC High is one approach to protecting CUI — but it's not required. The Access Gate creates a compliant on-premise CUI enclave that meets CMMC Level 2 requirements within your existing facility, without the cost and complexity of cloud migration.
The Access Gate directly implements controls across the 14 NIST 800-171 domains required for CMMC Level 2 — including Access Control (AC), Audit & Accountability (AU), Configuration Management (CM), Identification & Authentication (IA), and System & Communications Protection (SC).
The Access Gate exports control evidence mapped to each NIST 800-171 practice — including asset inventories, access logs, session records, network diagrams, and policy configurations. All in formats ready for C3PAO review.
Yes. The Access Gate protects legacy shop floor equipment at the network level — no agents required. It creates the CUI boundary around equipment that touches CUI data flows, satisfying CMMC segmentation requirements without touching the machines.
The Access Gate deploys inline on existing network infrastructure in hours. No re-cabling, no IP changes, no production disruption. From unboxing to operational CUI enclave in under a day for most manufacturing environments.
