ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Jan. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- X-Bow Systems Inc (X-Bow), the leading non-traditional producer of advanced manufactured solid rocket motors (SRMs) and defense technologies, announced today that it has successfully achieved Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 certification. This milestone underscores X-Bow's commitment to safeguarding sensitive Department of War (DoW) information and supporting national security with mission-obsessed precision and wartime speed delivery.

"Cybersecurity is a top priority for X-Bow as we support our national security customers in safeguarding critical information," said Jason Hundley, X-Bow CEO. "Achieving CMMC Level 2 certification demonstrates our dedication to the highest standards of cybersecurity and compliance, ensuring the security of information entrusted to us."

• Fewer than 1% of the estimated 80,000+ defense contractors required to achieve CMMC Level 2 certification have completed the rigorous third-party assessment process.
• X-Bow joins an elite group of just hundreds of organizations certified at this level, enabling it to deliver warfighting advantages with speed and reliability.

• X-Bow partnered with Redspin, an Authorized CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO), to complete the assessment.

Beyond cybersecurity:

X-Bow also holds AS9100D certification, a gold standard for quality management in aerospace and defense. Certified by DEKRA Testing and Certification, Inc., this recognition underscores X-Bow's commitment to excellence in program execution and quality.
