As of 9am on Wednesday, June 6th, 2012, the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Program Management Office (PMO) achieved Initial Operating Capability. As a part of IOC, the FedRAMP PMO is now accepting applications for provisional authorization of cloud systems. The application is currently housed on fedramp.gov and can be accessed via the following URL: http://www.gsa.gov/portal/content/125991

We encourage all cloud service providers and agencies with cloud services to apply for FedRAMP accreditation. All cloud service offerings used by the federal government are now required to meet the FedRAMP requirements.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the FedRAMP PMO directly ([email protected]).
