5 FedRAMP and Cloud Authorization

drumstep soul, swamp blues

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When data needs a federal home, three levels guard the zone
Low for public information, basic controls you own
Moderate steps up the game, sensitive data's claim
High protects the critical mass, national security's class

[Chorus]
Low Moderate High, that's the FedRAMP way
DoD maps two through six, Illinois levels in the mix
Share responsibility, know what's yours to see
CSP handles infrastructure, you control what sits on top

[Verse 2]
GovCloud isolation chambers, Azure Government's layers
AWS builds federal castles, GCP Assured hassles
Physical security locked down, networks they control
But applications and your users, those remain your soul

[Chorus]
Low Moderate High, that's the FedRAMP way
DoD maps two through six, Illinois levels in the mix
Share responsibility, know what's yours to see
CSP handles infrastructure, you control what sits on top

[Bridge]
Continuous monitoring never sleeps, vulnerability scanning sweeps
Monthly scans for critical flaws, POA&M updates because
Inheriting those golden packages, CSP controls you can leverage
Build your SSP foundation on their authorization nation

[Verse 3]
Operating system patches, identity and access matches
Data encryption at rest, network security blessed
But guest OS configuration, that's your obligation
Applications and their code, down your responsibility road

[Chorus]
Low Moderate High, that's the FedRAMP way
DoD maps two through six, Illinois levels in the mix
Share responsibility, know what's yours to see
CSP handles infrastructure, you control what sits on top

[Outro]
From hypervisor to the cloud, they've got the bottom proud
From OS up to your apps, you fill those security gaps
FedRAMP levels guide the trust, continuous monitoring's a must
