          WHAT WE DO

          We Protect the American Dream.

          Summit 7 is the trusted partner for DoD contractors for cybersecurity, compliance, and managed services, with the largest team of certified experts in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB).

          We help defense contractors like you secure their information systems and meet CMMC requirements—so you can keep doing your part for the country. 

          Certified. Proven. Trusted. 

          • Certified – Rely on us with confidence. We’re one of the first organizations in the nation to receive dual CMMC Level 2 certifications, both as an MSP / MSSP and a business.
          • Proven – Save time and effort by inheriting our compliance. Our solutions simplify your assessment and reduce scope. 
          • Trusted – Join over 1,000 DoD contractors who count on Summit 7. Supporting government contractors isn’t part of what we do—it’s our specialty. 

          Built for the Defense Industry

          Unlike generalist MSPs, Summit 7 focuses exclusively on serving the DIB. Our solutions are tailor-made for the challenges contractors face when handling CUI, ITAR, EAR, and other sensitive data

          We never outsource our services. Our entire support team is U.S.-based and US Citizens, meeting the strictest requirements for secure operations and protecting export-controlled data. 

          With our Guardian MSP and Vigilance MSSP services, you'll get continuous coverage that keeps you aligned with all NIST SP 800-171 controls—without drowning in complexity.

          Protecting the American Dream

          Cyber attacks pose significant threats to our defense infrastructure and the American Dream. At Summit 7, we're dedicated to providing cybersecurity solutions that safeguard the systems and data our warfighters and defense contractors rely on.

          Headquartered in the "Rocket City" – Huntsville, Alabama – we carry a deep conviction that what we do matters to our community and to our nation, both now and for future generations.
