With the goal of promoting use of secure cloud services across the government, FedRAMP helps reduce costs and duplicative efforts, encourage public-private partnerships for innovation and enhanced security, and accelerate the adoption of cloud computing within federal agencies. ## Taking the Security and Compliance of Mission-Critical Federal Agencies to the Next Level with FedRAMP High Authorization FedRAMP High Authorization is tailored for systems managing highly sensitive data, such as law enforcement, emergency services and healthcare. As the industry's only [CNAPP](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/cyberpedia/what-is-a-cloud-native-application-protection-platform?ts=markdown) to achieve FedRampHigh Authorization, Prisma Cloud meets the stringent security requirements necessary to support the U.S. government's most critical operations. ![](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/word-image-332532-1.png) ## Securing Mission-Critical Government Cloud Environments with the Industry-Leading CNAPP Prisma Cloud secures applications throughout their entire lifecycle --- from code to cloud, regardless of which cloud environment they run on. Cloud security teams and developers across public sector agencies can prevent cloud-first attacks and remediate risks at scale to stay ahead of threats faster, at a much lower cost. To meet the unique demands of government agencies, Prisma Cloud aligns with the industry's most rigorous security and compliance standards, including: **FedRAMP High**: Our latest certification means that Prisma Cloud has been tested and meets the stringent security requirements needed to protect sensitive government data. The certification enables federal agencies to confidently use Prisma Cloud in their most critical and sensitive environments. **StateRAMP High and Moderate** : Prisma Cloud holds [StateRAMP High and StateRAMP Moderate certifications](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/prisma-cloud/stateramp/?ts=markdown), underscoring its ability to deliver rigorous cloud security solutions that align with the diverse compliance requirements of state and local governments. ## Single Cloud Security Platform for Comprehensive Coverage Our platform approach allows for unified cloud security management --- reducing complexity and risk while improving operational efficiency. Whether you're managing FedRAMP Moderate or High environments, Prisma Cloud ensures comprehensive Code to Cloud security with a prevention-first approach. Prisma Cloud helps government organizations establish a comprehensive security strategy from code to cloud: * **Posture Management:** An effective cloud security strategy begins with understanding where the risks are. Prisma Cloud provides deep visibility into cloud environments and correlates security findings to prioritize and address the most severe risk. * \*\*Cloud Runtime Security:\*\*Prevent, detect and respond to cloud attacks before they impact your business. Prisma Cloud's runtime protection provides defense in depth with the most comprehensive threat intelligence for dynamic cloud environments --- including continuous monitoring for hosts, containers and serverless workloads. * **Application Security** : Block risks from reaching production and secure applications by design. Prisma Cloud's [AppSec](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/cyberpedia/appsec-application-security?ts=markdown) capabilities allow government agencies to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, compliance violations, exposed secrets and supply chain risks earlier in the development lifecycle. ![Prisma Cloud FedRAMP Compliance Report](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/word-image-332532-2.png) Figure 1: Prisma Cloud FedRAMP Compliance Report ## Future-Ready Cloud Security With Prisma Cloud, government agencies can confidently operate knowing that your cloud operations are secure and compliant with the highest industry standards.
