FedRAMP Certification
FY 2023-24 · 2024-02-12
Summary
As samdesk aims to serve larger and more complex markets, we require privacy and security certifications such as SOC2 and/or FedRamp, which require extensive internal resources as well as the engagement of third party assessors and auditors. This project specifically aims to further samdesk’s progress on obtaining these certifications, namely FedRamp, which will significantly enhance our ability to penetrate the US Federal Government market. As the work required to achieve SOC2 and FedRamp have significant overlap, both certifications have been included here and we will be working to achieve them in parallel.

Description (French)
Comme samdesk vise à servir des marchés plus vastes et plus complexes, nous avons besoin de certifications en matière de confidentialité et de sécurité telles que SOC 2 ou FedRamp, qui nécessitent des ressources internes considérables ainsi que l’engagement d’évaluateurs et d’auditeurs tiers. Ce projet vise spécifiquement à faire progresser samdesk dans l’obtention de ces certifications, notamment FedRamp, qui améliorera considérablement notre capacité à pénétrer le marché du gouvernement fédéral américain. Comme les travaux requis pour obtenir SOC 2 et FedRamp se chevauchent de manière significative, les deux certifications ont été incluses ici et nous travaillerons à les obtenir en parallèle.
