Cloud service providers don\u2019t like how long it takes to get approved for use by federal agencies, while agency officials don\u2019t always understand what FedRAMP can do to help agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The program allows agencies to reuse authorizations for different products in an effort to save the government money. However, Cheriyan said confusion persists at agencies about what can and cannot be reused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ve committed to raising the agency training by about 50 percent this year,\u201d Cheriyan said at a Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law event. \u201cThat\u2019s a core area that the team\u2019s been working on and, frankly, that\u2019s going to help with clarification.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cheriyan also noted that between fiscal year 2018 and fiscal year 2019 FedRAMP saw a 50 percent increase in agency reuse of authorizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In connection with the event, the Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law released a report Feb. 21 detailing three improvements that FedRAMP should make to improve its work, including the automation of the authorization process as a way to accelerate approvals. Cheriyan noted FedRAMP is already starting that work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In December, FedRAMP <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedramp.gov\/FedRAMP-moves-to-automate-the-authorization-process\/\" target=_blank>announced it <\/a>would use Open Security Controls Assessment Language to automate the authorization process, a standard developed with the National Institute of Standards and Technology that can be applied to implementing and assessing security controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As it stands, \u201cIt\u2019s a really, very, very manual, painful process,\u201d Cheriyan said. \u201cWhy does it take so long? It\u2019s because it takes a lot of manual effort in terms of creating the reports necessary and [to] review the reports.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cheriyan also noted that FedRAMP approved about 60 new cloud providers last year, bringing the total to 175.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report made two other recommendations. First, the authors suggested FedRAMP should consolidate and standardize the process for risk acceptance in the federal government. It also recommended that FedRAMP \u201cenable the federal government to leverage the full scope of emerging innovation in the cloud computing and information technology markets.\u201d For example, this could mean developing standard IT configurations across government and making selling to federal customers easier for cloud service providers by creating compliance pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response to the report, Cheriyan said \u201csubstantially, we\u2019re in agreement with the report. We really want to see how we can implement a lot of the recommendations.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FedRAMP wants each agency to have a liaison and up employee training
