IntelliGRC Achieves FedRAMP Moderate Readiness
IntelliGRC, a leading innovator in governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) technology, has reached a significant milestone by successfully completing the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Moderate Equivalency security assessment for its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. This accomplishment positions the company as "FedRAMP Moderate Ready" on the FedRAMP Marketplace, reinforcing its commitment to delivering secure and compliant solutions to its customers.
As organizations within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) face increasing demands to comply with stringent federal cybersecurity requirements regarding the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), the shift towards modern SaaS solutions has become paramount. Many organizations encounter challenges when attempting to adopt these solutions, often due to concerns about operational complexity. The FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency assessment serves as a vital benchmark for technology providers supporting contractors and agencies operating in regulated federal environments.
This rigorous assessment was conducted by A-LIGN, a reputable third-party assessment organization (3PAO) recognized for its expertise in compliance evaluations. A-LIGN meticulously reviewed IntelliGRC's security controls, processes, and documentation to ensure alignment with the demanding requirements laid out for FedRAMP Moderate system categorization, specifically referencing the guidelines established in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53 Rev. 5 framework, which details security and privacy controls for federal information systems.
Upon successful evaluation, A-LIGN awarded IntelliGRC with the FedRAMP Moderate Equivalent status, complying with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) clauses 252.204-7012 and 252.204-7020, which delineate the cybersecurity and reporting standards necessary for the protection of CUI. This recognition confirms that IntelliGRC's platform, incorporating advanced AI capabilities, meets the rigorous security expectations essential for safeguarding customer data. Consequently, this enables organizations to confidently utilize IntelliGRC's solutions in support of their cybersecurity compliance services and initiatives.
Importantly, all AI processing conducted on the IntelliGRC platform remains securely within the boundaries set forth by the FedRAMP Moderate authorization. Model training does not occur on customer data, ensuring that highly sensitive information is protected. Instead, models are fine-tuned and consistently updated by expert practitioners in the field of cybersecurity GRC, in line with the continual improvements associated with software updates.
Ozzie Saeed, Founder and CEO of IntelliGRC, expressed enthusiasm over this achievement: "Achieving FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency is a powerful validation of our commitment to building secure, resilient technology that our customers can depend on. This milestone underscores our dedication to meeting rigorous security standards and empowering organizations across the public and private sectors to protect their sensitive security program data with confidence."
IntelliGRC’s platform equips service providers and organizations with a robust, multi-tenant SaaS solution designed to facilitate the orchestration of governance, risk, compliance, and security programs in a cohesive manner. With this FedRAMP Moderate Equivalent assessment, IntelliGRC strengthens its position as a trusted partner for DIB organizations as well as Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), and other service partners striving to enhance their cybersecurity standing and compliance offerings.
