FedRAMP

In 2022, the FedRAMP Authorization Act was signed into law as part of the FY23 National Defense Authorization Act ("NDAA"). Cloud Service Providers ("CSPs") can be a part of the FedRAMP Marketplace by working with an Agency to obtain an Authority to Operate ("ATO"). A full security assessment is conducted by a Third Party Assessment Organization ("3PAO") which includes control testing, validation, and a complete review of a CSP's FedRAMP Authorization Package. After a CSP is authorized and is part of the FedRAMP Marketplace, CSPs participate in a continuous monitoring phase (58 controls) based on NIST SP 800-137. In order to maintain an ATO, CSPs must go through an assessment with a 3PAO for a subset of controls every year.

Cloudflare continuously introduces new features/functions across our platform throughout the year. We introduce those to our FedRAMP High scope depending on the annual assessment cycle.

Customers must review the Control Implementation Summary ("CIS") and Customer Responsibility Matrix ("CRM") Workbook. The workbook describes customer (Agency) and Cloudflare's responsibilities. The workbook will outline what controls can be inherited from Cloudflare's FedRAMP High offering (Cloudflare for Government). Agencies will be responsible for controls labeled as "Partial" and "No."
