Introduction to FedRAMP Requirements
Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) aiming to cater to federal organizations must adhere to strict security standards mandated by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). This includes undergoing an audit by a Third Party Assessment Organization (3PAO) to secure a provisional Authorization to Operate (ATO) and commence delivering cloud services to federal clients. With over 300 security controls, extensive documentation, and a stringent assessment process, achieving cloud service authorization is a complex journey.
