Rivac LabsFedRAMP & RMF Compliance Engineer
Selling cloud software to the federal government is gated behind an authorization process that's genuinely difficult to navigate on a first pass — NIST 800-53 controls, FedRAMP Rev5 (or the newer 20x pathway), a System Security Plan that has to hold up to assessor scrutiny, and a POA&M process for tracking gaps. This service builds that authorization package: control implementation mapped to your actual architecture, SSP documentation in the format assessors expect, POA&M tracking for open items, and OSCAL-formatted artifacts where required. It's for engineering and compliance teams pursuing a federal ATO who don't want to learn FedRAMP's specifics through a failed assessment. You get an authorization package built to pass, not just a checklist of controls.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Diagnose your current architecture against the applicable NIST 800-53 control baseline to find real gaps.
- 2
Pilot control implementation and documentation on one system boundary before scaling to the full package.
- 3
Review the draft SSP and POA&M with your compliance lead and assessor-facing stakeholders before submission.
- 4
Finalize the full authorization package and support you through assessment and continuous monitoring.
