To help limit compliance costs and support local adoption of stringent cybersecurity measures, the StateRAMP organization has announced that it is moving forward with a plan to map the Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS) framework into StateRAMP.
What does this mean for CSPs at the state level? So far, we don’t know much, but it could have big implications for agencies covering local and state law enforcement.
As government agencies continue to rely on cloud services and secure data management, companies involved in these sectors must navigate complex regulatory landscapes. The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) and the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) are two of the most critical frameworks in this space.
For companies pulling multiple responsibilities in government contracting—such as cloud service providers, cybersecurity firms, and systems integrators—understanding the equivalency between FedRAMP and CMMC is essential. This article explores the nuances of these frameworks, focusing on how businesses can effectively manage compliance when subject to both.
As businesses navigate the complexities of CMMC, the need for robust Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) tools becomes increasingly critical. These tools facilitate achieving compliance and ensure that organizations maintain a state of readiness, reducing the risk of cybersecurity breaches.
This article covers what it means to incorporate tools, solutions, or platforms to help decision-makers get on their CMMC journey.
