Exploring the FEDRAMP Ecosystem for Public Sector

Agencies at all levels of government see the value in using standards to improve cloud security. Although FedRAMP is a mandatory federal program, there is a growing number of state and local governments using the same requirements to evaluate their cloud service providers (CSPs). The benefits include time and cost savings when verifying security practices at those companies, as well as a level of assurance that vendors have met rigorous security requirements.

Carahsoft and partner companies will look at the current state of cloud in government, more specifically, the state of cloud security, the role of FedRAMP and how agencies can move forward with digital and modernization efforts securely.
