Government agencies require secure cloud solutions to achieve mission success. The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, or FedRAMP, evaluates the security of cloud providers.
FedRAMP is a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) that offer low or moderate impact cloud services to federal agencies must meet FedRAMP requirements.
Carahsoft offers FedRAMP cloud service offerings (CSOs) for three stages of compliance:

For the Department of Defense (DoD) to leverage cloud computing service offerings they must follow the DoD Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide (DoD CC SRG) set by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) standardized security requirements. Carahsoft can help Defense agencies find DoD authorized Cloud Service Offerings (CSOs).
FedRAMP’s success at the Federal level exposed the need for a similar program that could be utilized by state and local agencies. StateRAMP was created to allow state and local government to benefit from FedRAMP’s approach for standardizing cybersecurity requirements for IT solutions.
The Federal Government’s Cloud First Policy requires all CSP’s to be FedRAMP approved to hold federal data. FedRAMP compliance enables agencies to:
To work with the federal government, Cloud Service Providers must be FedRAMP authorized to ensure agencies maintain a high level of data protection. Federal officials look to the FedRAMP marketplace as the most reliable source when securing new cloud solutions. Learn how Carahsoft helps CSPs become FedRAMP authorized and build their federal customer base.
