Executing an independent assessment audit is the first step to preparing for a successful review. Next is remediating all issues that are identified. TestPros’ FedRAMP Security Services are designed to address the following requirements per the government website:
“FedRAMP Ready systems have demonstrated readiness to meet the FedRAMP requirements. Systems in this category cover a range of documentation and FedRAMP independent assessor assessment results. Not all systems in this category are cloud systems – other categories of systems will include build specifications and documentation for open source code that agencies can deploy.
To be considered FedRAMP Security Ready, systems must initiate a review of their documentation with the FedRAMP PMO. At a minimum, systems must go through the FedRAMP PMO Readiness Review."

- FedRAMP Process: It’s a structured approach ensuring Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) adhere to consistent security requirements.
- Continuous Monitoring: This ensures that the systems are always FedRAMP compliant and meet the federal agency standards.
- FedRAMP ATO (Authorization to Operate): This seal indicates a system has undergone meticulous review and is authorized to operate by the federal government.
- FedRAMP Marketplace: An avenue where you can find all FedRAMP Authorized services and products.
Why is FedRAMP Vital for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs)?
Being FedRAMP compliant or FedRAMP authorized is not just about ticking off a checklist. It is about ensuring that CSPs meet the strict security controls set by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). With federal agencies moving many of their operations to the cloud, it’s paramount for CSPs to have their services ready and compliant.
