Dochterman Insurance, an independent commercial insurance brokerage specialising in the US manufacturing sector, has launched a fully integrated cyber risk program that combines CyberCube’s cyber risk analytics platform with IT assessment and CMMC 2.0 compliance services from Resource Computer Solutions (RCS).
The program offers manufacturers a single point of contact for cyber risk identification, IT remediation, federal compliance certification, and insurance placement, capabilities that previously required managing multiple independent vendors, Dochterman stated.
The announcement comes as the Department of Defense enforces the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 requirements across its supply chain. Phase 1 requirements for contractors took effect on November 10, 2025.
Phase 2, beginning November 10, 2026, will require third-party certification for most contracts involving Controlled Unclassified Information. Manufacturers that fail to certify will be ineligible to bid on or retain Department of Defense work.
By leveraging CyberCube’s Broking Manager, Prep Module, and Cyber Connect tools, the program models potential financial losses from threats such as ransomware, operational disruptions, and supply chain attacks to quantify a manufacturer’s cyber exposure.
Concurrently, RCS evaluates security gas against NIST 800-171 controls and manages the necessary remediation and documentation required for CMMC certification, Dochterman explained.
Ultimately, Dochterman designed the cyber insurance policy based on both risk data and the client’s enhanced security posture, providing significant discounts on their insurance premiums, the firm noted.
Michael Dochterman, CEO of Dochterman, said: “Manufacturers recognise the importance of achieving compliance but often lack the internal resources and expertise needed. Many who attempt to handle it themselves fail, and the process can be highly disruptive to their operations.
“To address this, we developed a program that provides a single team responsible for identifying risks, fixing vulnerabilities, preparing for CMMC certification, and selecting appropriate insurance – all from experts who understand the realities of a shop floor. Since manufacturing is our sole focus, this dedicated approach is what makes it effective.”
Nate Brink, Head of Broker Partnerships at CyberCube, added: “By adopting CyberCube’s solutions, Dochterman is translating technical cyber risks into financial conversations that manufacturers can act on. Together, we’re helping manufacturers make more informed decisions about resilience and insurance protection.”
Tim Coates, CEO, Resource Computer Solutions, stated: “At Resource Computer Solutions, we are focused on helping manufacturers turn cybersecurity and compliance into a strategic advantage. By aligning CMMC 2.0 requirements with practical, real-world implementation, we enable our clients to strengthen their security posture while maintaining operational efficiency and competitiveness.”
