The First FedRAMP Compliant Digital Communications Solutions
Unlike private sector marketing technology, the govDelivery Communications Cloud is the first and only platform secure enough to be used exclusively by government and proven to double audiences within the first year. This framework saves time and staff required to conduct redundant agency security assessments. Our highly secure environment has withstood comprehensive and rigorous review at the JAB level, approved by CIOs from the General Services Administration (GSA), the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Why FedRAMP Matters
The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is the first government-wide security authorization program mandatory for all agencies and all cloud services. Agencies must implement FedRAMP and require it with all vendors they work with contractually.
