FedRAMP Certified LMS

The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (also known as FedRAMP) was established in 2011 and promotes the adoption of secure cloud services across the U.S. government, providing a standardized approach to security assessments for cloud service offerings. FedRAMP agencies use modernized cloud technologies with added emphasis on the security and protection of Federal information.

The program is mandatory, and federal agencies must ensure the cloud solutions they use meet FedRAMP requirements. FedRAMP uses a “do once, use many times” framework for vetting the security of cloud services. The program saves the government an estimated 30-40 percent in costs, as well as time and staff resources.

FedRAMP Benefits

• Security One key FedRAMP benefit is the ability to improve real-time security.
• Consistency FedRAMP helps ensure the consistent application of existing security practices.
• Risk-based Management The FedRAMP program helps provide a uniform approach to risk-based management.
• Saving The program saves significant cost, time, and resources by using a “do once, apply many times” strategy.
• Transparency FedRAMP enhances transparency between government and cloud service providers.
• Monitoring The program increases automation and near real-time data for continuous monitoring.
