Problem
A CMMC score of 91 that was computed against checks that had not run since May. Four Windows collectors were compile-time stubs; a 30-second ingest timeout had failed every OS evidence upload ever.
MacTech action
Rebuilt the evidence pipeline end to end: collectors made real, ingest timeout fixed, heartbeat restored, six checks re-pointed at what they claimed to measure. Re-scored on evidence that actually arrived.
Measurable result
SPRS fell to 75 (the first honest number in months), then rose to 89 within 36 hours as the weekly review, USB and media-protection controls closed on real evidence. 11 controls remained open, each with a named blocker.
