Are you with a SaaS looking for more revenue opportunities?
Have your sales teams talked with orgs who handle sensitive government data and asked whether you’re going to become FedRAMP equivalent or authorized?
Before you decide, you need to know what FedRAMP moderate equivalent is, why you might need it, and the fastest way to get it, so you can decide if it’s right for you.
We’ll cover:
Authorization from the government’s Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program or FedRAMP demonstrates that your cloud service can secure sensitive government data.
To get authorized you must:
FedRAMP equivalence includes the exact same controls as FedRAMP moderate authorization.
Becoming FedRAMP equivalent allows you to sell your cloud services to the 300,000+ companies that sell physical products to the Department of Defense.
You’re required to be FedRAMP equivalent if you want to sell your cloud services to any of the 300k+ companies who sell products to the DoD. These companies make up the DIB (Defense Industrial Base).
DIB members sell everything from paint to missile parts and beyond.
Data that passes between the DoD and DIB members, and the data that goes from one DIB member to another is called CUI (controlled unclassified information). It’s considered sensitive, even though it’s not classified.
FedRAMP equivalence (or authorization) is a must if you’re a CSP looking to sell to DIB members and your product would be used to store, send, or receive CUI.
According to the December 2023 equivalency memo, DIB members are on the line for security practices of any SaaS they contract with. They only contract with companies that have FedRAMP equivalence or moderate authorization to protect themselves and their sensitive data.

Paramify makes FedRAMP equivalence easier by automating SSP generation.
You’ll need an SSP (system security plan) to be FedRAMP authorized or FedRAMP equivalent. An SSP is hundreds to thousands of pages that track your security controls.
You can automatically generate your FedRAMP Equivalent SSP in hours with Paramify. It’s more accurate, less expensive, and much easier.
Many companies waste hundreds of thousands of dollars writing their SSP(s) manually over months/years.
But, now that’s kind of like sending your mom a telegram to tell her about your new dog rather than texting a picture. So much more effort for a worse result.
