About this Event

Hosted by Schellman and powered jointly with bladestack.io, “Securing the Cloud: Mastering FedRAMP Authorization Boundaries” is a webinar tailored to unravel the intricacies of FedRAMP Authorization for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) engaged with federal agencies. This session will draw upon the expertise of FedRAMP industry leaders, including Matt Hungate from Schellman, and Bhanu Jagasia and Bradley Taylor from bladestack.io, delving into the strategic nuances of FedRAMP Authorization Boundaries.

Participants will be provided with in-depth knowledge about Authorization Boundary Diagrams (ABD), as well as illustration of the integral components, services, and devices of the Cloud Service Offering (CSO). ABDs are crucial for presenting a transparent overview of the security measures being tested and authorized, including the delineation of external systems/services and identification of system components critical for Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAO) testing.

Despite the guidance provided by NIST SP 800-37 and FedRAMP, accurately depicting authorization boundaries remains a formidable challenge for many organizations. To address this, “Securing the Cloud: Mastering FedRAMP Authorization Boundaries” will cover essential topics such as:

  • Defining and appreciating the role of an authorization boundary in the FedRAMP landscape.
  • Effective strategies for federal data scoping and its categorization.
  • The distinction between critical, corporate, and external services as it relates to the boundary.
  • Management of agent-based services and development / test environment service boundaries.
  • Presentation of a reference Authorization Boundary diagram developed by bladestack.io that encapsulates all critical aspects of a FedRAMP Authorization package.

Join us for this webinar where Schellman and bladestack.io will provide real-world insights that can be used by CSPs to navigate the complexities of the FedRAMP Authorization process.
