FedRAMP Compliance

Implement FedRAMP (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program) requirements for cloud service providers serving US federal agencies.

When to Use

• Pursuing FedRAMP authorization for a cloud service offering
• Implementing NIST 800-53 security controls for federal workloads
• Establishing continuous monitoring (ConMon) processes
• Managing Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) tracking
• Preparing for a Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAO) audit
• Operating a FedRAMP-authorized system and maintaining authorization

Resolve the Applicable Program First

This is an illustrative Rev5 evidence-planning guide, not a current certification checklist. Record the service boundary, agency customers, selected Rev5 or 20x path, class, rule version and effective date before mapping controls. In the 2026 transition, FedRAMP uses certification and Classes A–D terminology; the timeline permits early adoption before January 2027 mandatory adoption, with area-specific effective dates. Legacy Low/Moderate/High labels below provide historical context only. Do not select a category from a data-type example alone: assess confidentiality, integrity and availability impact with the responsible agency and current rules.

Use the current official baseline and templates, not the illustrative subset below. JAB P-ATO is not a required route for High systems; JAB authorizations transitioned to the single FedRAMP designation. An agency’s authorization to operate remains a separate decision.

Historical Impact Labels (Illustrative)

impact_levels:
  low:
    baseline: "Resolve current applicable official baseline"
    use_case: "Publicly available federal information"
    examples:
      - Public-facing websites with no sensitive data
      - Open data portals
      - Marketing and informational systems
    data_types: "No PII, no CUI, publicly releasable only"
    path: "Resolve current program/class and eligibility"

  moderate:
    baseline: "Resolve current applicable official baseline"
    use_case: "Most federal systems, including CUI"
    examples:
      - Email and collaboration platforms
      - Case management systems
      - Financial management systems
      - HR and personnel systems
    data_types: "CUI, PII, law enforcement sensitive (LES)"
    path: "Resolve current program/class and eligibility"

  high:
    baseline: "Resolve current applicable official baseline"
    use_case: "High-impact federal systems"
    examples:
      - Law enforcement and criminal justice systems
      - Emergency services and public safety
      - Financial systems with significant impact
      - Healthcare systems with PHI
    data_types: "Unclassified high-impact federal information; classified systems require a separate regime"
    path: "Resolve current program/class and eligibility"
