The bipartisan FedRAMP Authorization Act has momentum in Congress and is likely to progress through the upper chamber in the coming weeks.
Speaking with FedScoop, Executive Director of MITRE’s Center for Data-Driven Policy Dave Powner said: “The presumption of adequacy clause is a really big deal. It creates a new standard for cloud risk determination and now FedRAMP authorization can be reused without further oversight and agencies can feel safe about not getting penalized.”
