Work together to provide a simple standardized approach to cybersecurity verification and validation.

A 501(c)6 nonprofit, StateRAMP levels the playing field for private-sector organizations serving the public sector and reduces hassles for public institutions with strict cybersecurity requirements.

Governments Can Procure and Secure More Efficiently and Confidently with StateRAMP

Diverse government standards and significant data sprawl through cloud service providers complicate today’s security environment, leaving governments less secure than ever amidst increasing cyber threats. StateRAMP lets governments trust but verify service provider products, making procurement more efficient and data more secure.

Service Providers Can Improve Security and Simplify Compliance with StateRAMP

Meeting the complex security standards and supplying (and resupplying) documentation required by various government partners can be confusing, time consuming, and costly. StateRAMP offers transferable credentials through standardized cybersecurity verification, allowing providers to verify once and serve many.
