FedRAMP Assessment & Consulting Services
FedRAMP: Secure Your Federal Cloud Contracts With Confidence
Contact UsBefore Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) can conduct business with federal entities, they must comply with stringent security criteria under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). This process includes a comprehensive audit by a Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAO) before being granted an Authority to Operate (ATO) and being able to offer your cloud services to federal clients.
Choosing an experienced 3PAO like Kratos is key to acquiring an ATO efficiently, as Kratos has extensive experience preparing CSPs for FedRAMP and conducting formal 3PAO audits. You can find more on our FedRAMP assessor page.
Kratos offers FedRAMP consulting and assessment services for public, private, community, and hybrid cloud models. These include Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS).
Our goal is to ensure CSPs are well-prepared for the 3PAO assessment process and to help them conduct the assessments necessary for confidently securing their cloud services.
