The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a US government-wide program that delivers a standard approach to the security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. The program was initiated by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in response the to the U.S. government's 2011 Cloud First Policy.
The FedRAMP provides federal agencies a standardized approach to assessing, authorizing, and continuously monitoring the security of cloud services to aid agencies in the FedRAMP authorization process as well as save government resources and eliminate duplicative efforts.
FedRAMP security requirements for cloud services are getting an update to align with recent guidance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The FedRAMP Program Management Office (PMO) has outlined the following requirements for FedRAMP compliance:
The cloud service provider (CSP) has been granted an Agency Authority to Operate (ATO) by a US federal agency, or a Provisional Authority to Operate (P-ATO) by the Joint Authorization Board (JAB).
The CSP meets the FedRAMP security control requirements as described in the Standards & Technology (NIST) 800-53, Rev. 4 security control baseline.
All system security packages must use the required FedRAMP templates.
The CSP must be assessed by an approved third-party assessment organization (3PAO).
The completed security assessment package must be posted in the FedRAMP secure repository.
FedRAMP security requirements are mandatory for all US federal agencies and all Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) that hold federal data. Key benefits of FedRAMP Compliance include, but are not limited to:
