Overview

The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is the U.S. government's standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services used by federal agencies. FedRAMP authorization is required for any cloud service provider (CSP) that wants to sell to the federal government.

The framework is based on NIST SP 800-53 controls and involves a rigorous assessment process conducted by a Third Party Assessment Organization (3PAO).

FedRAMP authorization is one of the most demanding compliance certifications in existence — and one of the most valuable for unlocking federal revenue.

At ~325 controls, FedRAMP is where pure automation breaks down — it can flag findings but can't write your SSP or carry your 3PAO assessment. Agency's U.S.-based, forward-deployed engineers operate the entire program for you.

Who Needs FedRAMP

Any cloud service provider seeking to serve U.S. federal agencies must achieve FedRAMP authorization. Organizations selling to state and local governments increasingly accept FedRAMP as well.

Technology & SoftwareSaaS, PaaS, and IaaS providers pursuing federal contracts must achieve FedRAMP authorization at the appropriate impact level (Low, Moderate, or High).
GovernmentGovernment technology contractors and integrators providing cloud-based services to federal agencies.
Aerospace & AviationDefense technology companies and aerospace contractors providing cloud services to DoD and civilian agencies.
Critical InfrastructureProviders of cloud-based infrastructure management, monitoring, and security tools serving federal networks.
