Cloudanix Joins AWS ISV Accelerate Program

Security authorization for cloud used by US state and local governments

StateRAMP

StateRAMP provides a standardized approach to security authorization for cloud products and services used by U.S. state and local governments. Modeled on FedRAMP and based on NIST SP 800-53 control baselines (Low, Moderate, High), it gives governments a consistent way to verify a provider's security posture. For cloud service providers pursuing StateRAMP on AWS, Azure, GCP, or OCI, the program requires implementing and evidencing NIST 800-53 controls. Cloudanix continuously assesses cloud environments against these baselines and produces the evidence assessors expect.

Understanding StateRAMP Requirements

StateRAMP offers a standardized, FedRAMP-modeled security authorization for cloud used by state and local governments, based on NIST SP 800-53 baselines (Low, Moderate, High). Cloudanix maps these baselines to continuous checks across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI.

Just-In-Time Access for StateRAMP

StateRAMP expects access to sensitive systems and data to be controlled, least-privileged, and auditable. Standing administrative privileges are a common source of risk and audit findings. Cloudanix Just-In-Time (JIT) access provides time-bound, temporary privileged access across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. JIT eliminates standing admin rights, enforces approval workflows before access is granted, maintains a complete audit trail of who accessed what and when, and automatically revokes access when the task is done — directly supporting StateRAMP's access-control expectations.

Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) for StateRAMP

StateRAMP requires organizations to protect sensitive data and to detect and respond to unauthorized access. Visibility into database activity is central to meeting that expectation. Cloudanix DAM monitors database access in real time across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI data stores. It detects unauthorized or anomalous queries, maintains detailed audit logs of data access, and raises alerts that help teams investigate and respond within the timelines StateRAMP expects.

Identity and Access Governance for StateRAMP

StateRAMP expects that only authorized identities can reach sensitive systems and that access is limited to what each role needs. Modern cloud estates contain thousands of human and non-human identities. Cloudanix provides identity governance across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI that inventories every identity, detects excessive or unused permissions, enforces least privilege, and tracks both human users and non-human identities such as service accounts, API keys, and workload identities — helping enforce the segregation of duties StateRAMP requires.

Cloud Security Posture and Misconfiguration Management

StateRAMP calls for secure configuration and technical safeguards to protect systems and data. Misconfigurations are a leading cause of breaches and audit findings. Cloudanix continuously scans AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI for security misconfigurations relevant to StateRAMP — publicly exposed storage, unencrypted data stores, weak access controls, and disabled logging. Automated detection and guided remediation help organizations close gaps quickly and maintain a defensible posture.

Workload and Runtime Security

StateRAMP expects appropriate security throughout the lifecycle of the systems that process sensitive data. Cloud workloads — applications, containers, serverless functions, and virtual machines — must be secured accordingly. Cloudanix secures workloads across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI through vulnerability detection, runtime monitoring, configuration compliance, and network segmentation checks, helping organizations meet StateRAMP's expectations for protecting systems in operation.

Software Supply Chain Visibility (SBOM)

StateRAMP increasingly expects organizations to understand and manage risk from third-party software components. Visibility into the software supply chain is essential to that effort. Cloudanix generates Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for cloud applications and containerized workloads across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. This provides visibility into components in use, identifies vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and dependencies, and supports the due diligence and third-party risk management StateRAMP calls for.

Fast Onboarding. Real-Time Visibility. Continuous Compliance.
