A plan to overhaul the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), which aims to streamline how cloud providers sell to the federal government, promises a faster, more efficient path through red tape. However, it leaves vendors uncertain about how this will resolve costly delays, vague directives and murky rules that control access to the world’s largest buyer. FedRAMP 20x, a new initiative from the General Services Administration, aims to partner with the private sector to develop a cloud-native, continuous security assessment model that meets federal requirements. The program plans to apply industry-standard security frameworks and automate over 80% of FedRAM controls without needing to explain how it operates. However some experts warn that without clear details on execution, the changes could create new uncertainties and disrupt companies mid-process.
