Ensure Compliance in Cloud Environments

Any cloud service offerings must have the strictest protocols and controls. These days, data of all kinds is under assault; highly sensitive data, such as financial or that related to federal agencies, requires the highest of security controls. Fortunately, there are existing, established standards that address these evolving challenges FedRAMP (Federal Risk and Management Program) provides a standardized approach to ensure that cloud service providers and third-party vendors meet specific security requirements to work with sensitive data.

With FedRAMP authorization, you can be assured that your organization has a handle on all the practices involved in the continuous monitoring of data in the cloud needed to reduce federal risk. Continuum GRC has the experience and expertise to do a thorough security assessment and uncover any particular federal risk. There are very specific standards that must be met to achieve FedRAMP authorization;  we’ll help get your organization up to speed and stay there.

Purpose of FedRAMP

The FedRAMP program was created to provide a set of standardized security practices, guidelines, and goals for any cloud services involved with federal agencies. Achieving FedRAMP authorization means that your organization is meeting the most current security requirements and performing continuous monitoring to prevent the ever-evolving threats of cyberattacks. 

FedRAMP provides companies with a single framework for assessing cloud services and one set of guidelines for making any adjustments. This single point of reference eliminates any questions or concerns about ensuring that a cloud service provider is in compliance with the rigorous security standards of the federal government.

Navigating your firm’s federal risk and other security issues can be challenging. Continuum GRC is the expert in every part of the FedRAMP process. We’ll guide you through the demanding security requirements that are necessary for working with any federal agency these days, and staying compliant.

Increase Efficiency in Obtaining FedRAMP Compliance

Achieving and maintaining compliance with the evolving security measures needed to work with a federal agency can be time-consuming and worrisome. What if you miss something? What happens to your valued FedRAMP authorization then? 

Continuum GRC is the smart way to handle this complicated process. Compliance assessment and solutions are what we specialize in. The FedRAMP authorization process can be a long one; partnering with us to evaluate and monitor your practices and infrastructure takes some of the weight and time off employees. It ensures that you spot potential problems before they become an issue. We ensure that you are in line with the strict (and ever-evolving)  federal demands around security.

Staying on top of those demands and standards on your own is risky and time-consuming; the security environment is constantly changing, with newer and greater threats. Handing off that great responsibility to Continuum GRC is a smart move.

FAQ

FedRAMP ConMon stands for “continuous monitoring.” It’s designed to maintain the security of cloud systems and prevent any unauthorized changes that could introduce potential risks. ConMon solutions are needed for any cloud service provider that wants to work with federal agencies. ConMon helps ensure ongoing compliance with security regulations.

FedRAMP compliance is a broad framework established by the government, providing a clear, standardized approach to security needs for cloud service providers that work for agencies. 

ConMon (“continuous monitoring”) is one part of that framework, focused on ongoing assessments of the controls that ensure security compliance.

Yes. ConMon practices are critical for ensuring that a strong security posture is being maintained at the CSP and that any incidents are noted.  ConMon provides the evidence to federal agencies being serviced by that CSP by reporting on the security standards required to maintain FedRAMP authorization.

For CSPs authorized under FedRAMP, a ConMon report must be submitted every month in order to maintain that authorization. These reports reveal ongoing compliance and include vital information like system changes, security incidents, and the results of regular vulnerability scans. Annual assessments are also conducted by third-party assessment organizations.

Typically, getting FedRAMP-certified takes from 12 to 18 months. This timeframe can be influenced by the preparation of the organization and its documentation. CSPs that are less complex (with fewer offerings) may have a faster go of it. Having a thorough risk and mitigation plan in place can also move things along.
