FedRAMP is the US Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program established in 2011 by OMB Memorandum M-11-30 + implementing the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) for cloud services used by US federal agencies. FedRAMP Rev 5 is the current version operating against NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5 + the FedRAMP Rev 5 Baselines (Low + Moderate + High + LI-SaaS) with FedRAMP-specific overlay parameters. NB: the substantive control content for the FedRAMP Moderate (323 controls) + FedRAMP High (417 controls) baselines is tracked separately in the graph as 'FedRAMP Moderate' + 'FedRAMP High' frameworks (both verified against NIST 800-53 OSCAL). This corpus node tracks the PROGRAM-LEVEL reference covering: (a) the FedRAMP Program Management Office (PMO) under GSA; (b) FedRAMP authorization paths - JAB (Joint Authorization Board comprising DOD + DHS + GSA) + Agency-ATO (individual agency Authority to Operate); (c) Authorization Boundary documentation including SSP / SAR / POA&M / continuous-monitoring plan; (d) Continuous Monitoring (ConMon) - monthly vulnerability scanning + quarterly POA&M update + annual assessment + reporting via Salesforce + FedRAMP Marketplace; (e) Significant Change Request (SCR) workflow + FedRAMP review; (f) 2024 OMB Memorandum M-24-15 modernising the FedRAMP process + introducing FedRAMP 2.0; (g) Coordination with StateRAMP + GovRAMP + state + local + tribal government cloud authorization; (h) coordination with FISMA + NIST SP 800-37 RMF + the FedRAMP Marketplace listing of authorized CSPs + assessors (3PAOs).

FedRAMP Rev 5 is a compliance framework from United States with 7 domains and 12 controls that map to 120 other frameworks. The largest domains are FedRAMP: Authorization Boundary, SSP, SAR, POA&M and System Documentation (2 controls), FedRAMP: Baseline Selection (Low, Moderate, High, LI-SaaS) and Control Overlay Parameters (2 controls), FedRAMP: Continuous Monitoring (ConMon) and Significant Change Requests (2 controls). Every control below carries what it requires and what an assessor expects to see.

It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

What does FedRAMP Rev 5 actually require?

FedRAMP Rev 5 has 12 controls organised across 7 domains. The largest domains are FedRAMP: Authorization Boundary, SSP, SAR, POA&M and System Documentation (2 controls), FedRAMP: Baseline Selection (Low, Moderate, High, LI-SaaS) and Control Overlay Parameters (2 controls), FedRAMP: Continuous Monitoring (ConMon) and Significant Change Requests (2 controls). Each control defines specific requirements that organisations must implement to achieve compliance.
