  • Fedramp SECURITY ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK
    FedRAMP SECURITY ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK Version 2.4 November 15, 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document describes a general Security Assessment Framework (SAF) for the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP). FedRAMP is a Government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud-based services. FedRAMP uses a “do once, use many times” framework that intends to save costs, time, and staff required to conduct redundant Agency security assessments and process monitoring reports. FedRAMP was developed in collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the General Services Administration (GSA), the Department of Defense (DOD), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Many other Government Agencies and working groups participated in reviewing and standardizing the controls, policies and procedures. | i DOCUMENT REVISION HISTORY DATE VERSION PAGE(S) DESCRIPTION AUTHOR Major revision for NIST SP 800-53 Revision 4. 06/06/2014 2.0 All FedRAMP PMO Includes new template and formatting changes.

    LAYING THE KEEL MAY 2019 THE SAILOR'S CREED I AM A UNITED STATES SAILOR. I WILL SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND I WILL OBEY THE ORDERS OF THOSE APPOINTED OVER ME. I REPRESENT THE FIGHTING SPIRIT OF THE NAVY AND THOSE WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE ME TO DEFEND FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY AROUND THE WORLD. I PROUDLY SERVE MY COUNTRY'S NAVY COMBAT TEAM WITH HONOR, COURAGE AND COMMITMENT. I AM COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE AND THE FAIR TREATMENT OF ALL. INTRODUCTION As our Navy grows and evolves to protect America's interests in a fast paced, more complex and increasingly competitive environment, more will be expected and demanded from its Enlisted Leaders at all levels. Today, we are the strongest Navy in the world by any measure – we have the most capable ships, the best equipment, and more importantly the finest Sailors. Petty Officers have been demonstrating technical competence and devotion to duty in our Navy since 1775. Just as our capital assets, procedures, policies and technology have evolved over the course of our history, so has the process to develop effective leadership qualities that address the challenges our Sailors face. Our Sailors today are recognized worldwide in their distinct ability to overcome adversity, courageously face challenges and accomplish our Navy's mission as the world's most well trained and combat ready force. The Navy the Nation Needs will require our Enlisted Leaders to be continuously flexible, more innovative and confident in achieving operational excellence in tougher and more challenging environments. As our Sailors operate on all domains, from the sea floor to space, their daily duties, mission and challenges are unique.
