SAP National Security Services, Inc. (SAP NS2) announced that they have received their StateRAMP Authorization from the StateRAMP Approvals Committee (SAC).
StateRAMP, a nationally recognized risk authorization management program, provides a standardized approach to assessing cloud products. Their process for verification relies on Authorized Third Party Assessing Organizations (3PAOs) to conduct independent audits and assessments. The requirements are built on the widely accepted National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800- 53.
“Since its inception in 2020, StateRAMP has quickly become an important security framework to our customers,” said Penny Klein, Vice President, Governance, Risk, & Compliance, SAP NS2. “Our StateRAMP Authorization will provide state and local governments with a compliance framework that meets their rising security requirements.”
