Program Offerings

Single Security Snapshot

An early stage security maturity assessment tool for cloud products, the Security Snapshot helps providers begin their cybersecurity journey and take the first step toward achieving a verified GovRAMP security status.

Progressing Security Snapshot Program

A subscription-based program combining trust-but-verify principles and a mentoring approach to improving cybersecurity maturity, Progressing Security Snapshot includes quarterly assessments and monthly consultative calls with the GovRAMP PMO team.

GovRAMP Ready

GovRAMP Ready is a verified security status attained by meeting the GovRAMP minimum mandatory requirements, demonstrated by a readiness assessment report conducted by a 3PAO.

No contract or government sponsor is required for Ready status. GovRAMP Ready indicates a product is likely well positioned to comply with the full authorization requirements.

GovRAMP Authorized/Provisionally Authorized

GovRAMP Authorized/Provisionally Authorized is a verified security status that indicates the product meets all the required security controls by impact level.

Authorized/Provisionally Authorized Status requires a 3PAO attestation, GovRAMP PMO verification, and acceptance by a government sponsor or the GovRAMP Approvals Committee.

GovRAMP for Small Business

Small business partners are critical for the public sector. GovRAMP understands, however, that developing and maintaining a strong cybersecurity posture can be difficult as a small business. With GovRAMP, small business leaders have an ally in the work to advance more secure public-private partnerships at the state and local levels.
