The FedRAMP accelerator from Securitybricks is an advanced application designed to streamline and automate the FedRAMP Authority to Operate (ATO) process for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and Software as a Service (SaaS) providers. Built on the ServiceNow Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC): Policy and Risk Management module, this comprehensive solution helps organizations seeking FedRAMP certification to enhance their cybersecurity posture. FedRAMP, a U.S. federal government mandate, requires CSPs to achieve certification before they can engage with any of the 438 federal agencies. Certified providers are then listed on the FedRAMP marketplace, signifying compliance with stringent security standards.
The primary objective of the FedRAMP assessment questionnaires is to automate the ATO process by incorporating the control objectives from the NIST SP 800-53 framework. The application enables stakeholders to efficiently provide evidence to meet control requirements, assign questionnaires to various team members, and track progress toward compliance. Designed with a user-friendly interface, the application allows for the creation and management of additional assessment questionnaires, supported by an intuitive dashboard that provides real-time insights into the assessment process.
