Implementing StateRAMP for Government

StateRAMP has developed resources and template language for government procurement and information security teams for incorporating StateRAMP into their processes and procedures.

Resources, Guides, and Sample Language for Government

Standardized Best Practices

Our resources build upon the recently updated Center for Digital Governments (CDG) Best Practices Guide for Cloud Procurements.

The new version of the CDG Best Practices Guide (BPG) for Cloud Procurements offers information, options, and examples designed to strengthen cloud service cybersecurity assurance and resiliency. It lays out a strategy for employing consistent baseline security and privacy controls and integrating cloud service risk and authorization management practices into cloud governance and procurement policies.
