FedHIVE announced it became the first small-business provider to secure FedRAMP High Impact Baseline Provisional Authority to Operate for its Infrastructure-as-a-Service and Platform-as-a-Service capabilities.

FedHIVE's FedRAMP authorization lowers barriers to entry for prospective contractors by facilitating market access and streamlines digital transformation by directly supporting the journey.

"FedHIVE's network of experts understands the challenges of secure modernization, both from the perspective of a government agency looking to transform and a business looking to drive this innovation," said Michael Cardaci, FedHIVE CEO. "Our own evolution gives us that experience and know-how to help our partners advance with fewer hurdles and more certainty."

FedHIVE is the first non-leveraged, full-stack offering from a small business to obtain a FedRAMP Joint Authorization Board P-ATO, approved by the JAB, for IaaS and PaaS capabilities.

"Having navigated elaborate federal security requirements and acquisition rules themselves, we were confident FedHIVE would give us the attention we needed for the success of our project in a very tight time window," said Mark Serway, chief financial and administrative officer at Hitachi Vantara Federal.

In addition to meeting the High Impact Baseline requirements of 425 NIST 800-53 Security Controls, FedHIVE's IaaS and PaaS offerings meet or exceed FIPS PUB 199 System Security Level of High within the boundary to support federal cloud services requirements for agency data.
