TWO PATH TO FEDRAMP

JAB Path

The JAB is composed of representatives from the Department of Defense (DoD), the General Services Administration (GSA), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The JAB path is suitable for cloud service providers looking to offer their services to multiple federal agencies. The JAB conducts a comprehensive review and authorization process on behalf of federal agencies.

Agency Path

The agency authorization path is intended for cloud service providers who work primarily with a specific federal agency. In this path, the agency takes responsibility for evaluating and granting the FedRAMP ATO.

Understanding FedRAMP Risk Levels and Compliance

Low Impact

Cloud service offerings in this category have limited adverse effects on agency operations, assets, or individuals in case of a breach.

Fewer security controls are needed due to the lower potential impact.

Accorp Partners assists in implementing streamlined security controls for achieving and maintaining FedRAMP compliance for low-impact CSOs.

Moderate Impact

Moderate impact CSOs can lead to serious adverse effects on agency operations, assets, or individuals if confidentiality, integrity, and availability are compromised.

Accorp Partners specializes in helping you navigate the complexities of compliance to meet the stringent security standards for moderate-impact CSOs.

High Impact

Breaches to high-impact data systems can have severe or catastrophic consequences.

High-impact data often includes sensitive areas such as law enforcement, emergency services, financial systems, and health systems.

Accorp Partners provides comprehensive solutions to ensure your cloud services meet the rigorous security controls required for high-impact CSOs.
