Value Proposition: Why Choose AdVran for FedRAMP?

FedRAMP authorization is the gateway to federal cloud contracts. The program’s 300+ controls (based on NIST 800-53) require not just implementation but continuous monitoring and annual reassessment.

1. FedRAMP-Aligned Cloud Architecture

We architect government client environments on FedRAMP Moderate and High authorized platforms—Azure Government, AWS GovCloud, Google Cloud for Government—ensuring your cloud foundation meets federal requirements from day one.

2. Continuous Monitoring

FedRAMP requires ongoing security assessment, not just initial authorization. We provide the continuous monitoring, vulnerability scanning, and monthly reporting that maintains your authorization status.

3. NIST 800-53 Control Implementation

We implement and operate the technical controls from NIST 800-53 that FedRAMP requires—spanning access control, audit logging, incident response, system integrity, and more.

4. StateRAMP Alignment

For state and local government clients, StateRAMP provides a parallel authorization framework. Our controls and documentation satisfy both FedRAMP and StateRAMP requirements, enabling you to serve all levels of government.

5. 3PAO Coordination
