FedRAMP Marketplace: Agency Guide

The FedRAMP Marketplace is an official online repository designed to help federal agencies find authorized cloud services, streamlining the security authorization process and offering a standardized approach to cloud service security levels. FedRAMP is mandatory for federal cloud deployments, allowing agencies to purchase authorized software without undergoing the full security assessment, thus saving time and resources. Agencies must still individually authorize each product, but using FedRAMP-authorized products simplifies this process. The marketplace offers three service models—SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS—and categorizes products by impact levels using FIPS 199 standards, which assess confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Agencies are advised to understand their specific needs and security requirements before selecting products, with a wide range of options available to enhance efficiency and security. Non-federal entities, including state, local, and international agencies, can also benefit from the stringent security standards of FedRAMP products. The marketplace is continuously expanding, and users are encouraged to explore and select products that align closely with their organizational goals, while agencies must ensure that each product fits their security needs through a process of continuous monitoring and assessment.
