CMMC Compliance Shouldn’t Punish You for Having More Devices
For most business owners, the real fear in CMMC isn’t the controls; it’s the device-based pricing that skyrockets as the company grows. Modern teams use multiple devices across laptops, desktops, tablets, and remote endpoints, so the number of devices naturally increases.
But traditional vendors treat each new device as another revenue opportunity, turning normal business growth into unexpected security costs that trap owners in unpredictable monthly bills.
CMMC shouldn’t get more expensive just because your business grows - but per-device pricing makes it feel that way.
The Hidden Device Problem No One Talks About
- $X per device
- $Y per endpoint
- $Z per remote user
- Extra monitoring fees
- Extra security add-ons
- Extra management fees
And suddenly, what was marketed as a $700/month “simple security solution” turned into over $2,000/month; all because their team used 10–20 devices to get their work done.
Our client told us exactly what many business owners have been saying:
“We didn’t realize devices would cost this much. Every time we added an employee, our security bill went up.”
Your Team Needs Devices; Why Are You Being Punished for It?
If you’re running a real business, of course, you need:
- Laptops for employees
- Desktop systems for office teams
- Secure remote devices
- Mobile device access
- Contractor workstations
- BYOD controls
But every extra device becomes another monthly charge; even though your risk and requirements don’t magically increase each time you add a laptop.
CMMC doesn’t say: “Charge more when businesses have more devices.”
CMMC simply says: “Protect the environment handling CUI.”

Why Device-Based Pricing Hurts Businesses
It punishes growth
Adding employees = adding devices = adding cost.
It creates budgeting anxiety
You never know what you’ll pay next month.
It discourages upgrading hardware
Owners delay buying new laptops because each one comes with a recurring security fee.
It creates cost creep
A 12-device team slowly becomes 18 devices… and the invoice grows quietly every month.
It has nothing to do with actual CMMC requirements
