Fully Managed Cloud Infrastructure

As cloud service providers, our FISMA Cloud offering is based on a fully managed cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model allowing customers control over their hosted applications while GovDataHosting certified support personnel fully manage the underlying cloud and security infrastructure, the hypervisor and the operating system. As part of our fully managed cloud service for customers, GovDataHosting provisions and manages all cloud resources including network bandwidth, vCPU, disk and memory resources and rapid elasticity on an as needed basis commensurate with allocated budget and mission requirements.

To comply with demanding government Assessment and Authorization (A&A) process requirements, our FISMA compliant cloud is fully compatible with infrastructure related technical, operational and management controls referenced in NIST Special Publication 800-53 Revision 4 low, moderate and high risk baselines, as well as additional FedRAMP and agency-specific enhanced guidance.

FedRamp Certification Levels: 

FedRAMP Low Impact Level

The low impact level is the baseline security standard for cloud systems and data. It is designed to support cloud services and products that are intended for public use and generally considered to be low risk. Any loss in the availability or confidentiality of systems and information at this level would not substantially impact an agency’s mission (nor operations, finances, reputation, and personnel).

With less risk assigned, security documentation is consolidated, and the timeline for approvals is shortened. Low-level systems are secured by 125 controls – the technologies and processes cloud service providers set in place to secure government data stored in the cloud.

FedRAMP Moderate Impact Level

Data that is not publicly available, like personally identifiable information, is considered controlled unclassified information and is subject to the 325 controls of the FedRAMP moderate impact level. These enhanced controls require cloud service providers to automate many management and risk detection functions to better secure systems and data. At this level, data loss or exposure could have direct impact on an agency’s mission. Operations might be disrupted, assets lost, and personnel files exposed.

FedRAMP High Impact Level

Prior to June 2016, when FedRAMP released the high-level security baseline, government agencies were only able to contract cloud service providers for low level and moderate level cloud operations. Now, an agency can outsource the management of high risk systems and data – provided the external environments comply with the 421 controls of the FedRAMP high impact level.

The high impact level is suitable for the federal government’s most sensitive, unclassified information. This generally applies to law enforcement, emergency operations, financial services, and healthcare systems, where a breach could result in significant institutional damage, financial ruin, or loss of life. Extensive security protocols, heightened authentication procedures, and more automation help ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of this high-impact data.
