Governance

Guided by Public and Private Sector Leadership

GovRAMP is governed by a collaborative network of public- and private-sector leaders who bring real-world expertise to the program.

Through board leadership and committee engagement, these stakeholders help shape program direction, uphold standards, and ensure alignment with the evolving needs of government and industry.

This governance model ensures the framework remains practical, transparent, and responsive—while maintaining the integrity required to support trusted security verification.
