Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a U.S. government initiative launched in 2011 to standardize security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services used by federal agencies.
The primary goal of FedRAMP primary to streamline the cloud adoption process for federal agencies by eliminating the redundancy of security assessments. FedRAMP achieves this goal by allowing Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) to complete a one-time comprehensive security assessment. This single authorization benefits multiple agencies, cutting down the time and resources needed for separate security evaluations.
The FedRAMP process includes initiation, assessment, authorization, continuous monitoring, and potential decommissioning. CSPs undergo a detailed evaluation by a third-party assessment organization (3PAO) focusing on security, risk management, and compliance.
Once a cloud service receives FedRAMP authorization, it is listed in the FedRAMP Marketplace (as we are now), making it accessible to federal agencies seeking secure cloud solutions
FedRAMP compliance requires CSPs to meet specific security controls and undergo an assessment process before being categorized into three impact levels. The requirements include:
FedRAMP and FIPS 140-2 serve as key U.S. government frameworks enhancing information security. With that said, FEDRAMP and FIPS 140-2 target different aspects of technology, and so each have distinct requirements.
