The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a U.S. government-wide framework designed to standardize the security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring of cloud services. Any cloud-based provider seeking to serve federal agencies must meet FedRAMP’s security requirements—and the level of authorization depends on the sensitivity and impact of the data involved.

FedRAMP defines three tiers of risk impact:

• Low: Public data with minimal risk if exposed.
  
• Moderate: Sensitive but unclassified data, such as internal communications or procurement records.
  
• High: Data where compromise could cause catastrophic harm to operations, assets, or individuals—such as law enforcement records, national security data, health systems, and financial infrastructure.

FedRAMP High is the most stringent level. It requires compliance with 421 NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 controls and is mandatory for systems supporting high-impact federal workloads.

Authorized to operate in civilian environments handling high-impact data.

Approved after a comprehensive security review by a FedRAMP-accredited Third Party Assessment Organization (3PAO).

Cleared as a secure SaaS solution under the FedRAMP High baseline, with enforced single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication.

Aligned with the latest government cybersecurity mandates, including OMB M-22-09 (Zero Trust), and NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5.

Security Measures That Set Us Apart

NodeZero Federal is more than compliant; it’s built for high-consequence environments where assumptions are dangerous and delays are costly.

What sets us apart:

• Autonomous, production-safe pentesting that emulates real attack paths without agents or integrations.
  
• Credential-optional testing that exposes misconfigurations, policy violations, and trust boundary weaknesses.
  
• One-click retesting to instantly verify remediation with no consultants or wait time
  
• Alignment with real-world adversary behavior, not theoretical vulnerabilities.

Where most tools simulate risk, NodeZero Federal proves it safely, continuously, and with clarity.
