SailPoint Identity Security Cloud is GovRAMP Authorized: Expanding our commitment to the public sector

We are thrilled to announce that SailPoint Identity Security Cloud has achieved GovRAMP Authorization, a significant milestone that underscores our dedication to providing secure and verified identity security solutions for public sector organizations. Our authorization includes essential capabilities for Non-Employee Risk Management, Machine Identity Security, and Data Access Security.

What is GovRAMP?

GovRAMP (Government Risk and Authorization Management Program), formerly operating as StateRAMP, is a standardized security verification model designed to assess cloud services for state, local, tribal governments, and educational institutions. Modeled after the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), GovRAMP follows NIST 800-53 standards to ensure that cloud service providers meet rigorous cybersecurity requirements.

Why this matters for SLED organizations

Achieving GovRAMP Authorization means that Identity Security Cloud has been independently verified to meet stringent security controls, providing assurance to our state, local, and education (SLED) partners. This authorization simplifies the procurement process, as many SLED organizations are increasingly recognizing and adopting GovRAMP standards to streamline vendor selection and enhance data security.

Our commitment to modernized identity security

With cyber threats on the rise, especially targeting public sector entities, robust identity security is more critical than ever. Our GovRAMP Authorized solutions are designed to:

• Secure & govern access to sensitive data: Extend visibility and access governance to your sensitive data
• Enhance visibility into access risk: Increase visibility and control of potential access risks.
• Manage third-party and non-employee access: Easily onboard, track, and govern contractors, vendors, and business partners at scale.
• Control machine accounts: Discover, classify, and govern bots, service accounts, and other machine identities to reduce risk and improve accountability.
• Reduce risk: Quickly deprovision access as someone changes departments or leaves the organization.

“Achieving GovRAMP Authorization is a major step forward in our mission to protect the public sector with industry-leading identity security,” said Jeff Kidwell, Group Vice President of Public Sector at SailPoint. “This authorization validates the strength of our platform and reinforces our dedication to helping state, local, and education organizations navigate complex identity security challenges with confidence, clarity, and trust.”
