1E on an Accelerated Path to FedRAMP Certification to Provide Cloud-Native DEX Platform to US Federal Agencies
AUSTIN, Texas, October 17, 2024 (Newswire.com) - 1E, a leading Digital Employee Experience (DEX) platform company, is on track to achieving FedRAMP® (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program) Authorization, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This commitment solidifies 1E’s dedication to providing secure, compliant cloud-based endpoint management and DEX solutions to U.S. federal agencies.
As part of the ongoing process serving government entities,1E successfully completed NIST SP800-53, a set of comprehensive security standards developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for assessing, certifying, and monitoring the security of cloud computing services, to ensure that organizations implement the necessary controls to protect information systems and sensitive data.
1E has partnered with Project Hosts to accelerate and simplify the cloud compliance journey while ensuring that its services consistently meet the specific standards of government agencies. With Project Hosts' authorized security platform and proven managed security services, 1E can uphold accountability and meet the highest levels of accuracy in its compliance efforts and achieve FedRAMP compliance status by January 2025.
U.S. federal agencies will have access to 1E’s cloud-based services designed specifically for strict compliance with federal standards. Agencies can have the confidence to manage critical IT operations with 1E. The platform delivers real-time visibility, unified endpoint management, and enhanced security, as well as key Federal agency IT Operation use cases:
- Identifying and Remediating IT Issues
- Hardware Refresh
- Reclaiming Unused Software
- Fully Optimized Service Desk
“We are proud to be making significant progress towards achieving FedRAMP Authorization, in addition to our successful NIST attestation,” said Mark Banfield, CEO of 1E. “These accomplishments underscore our strong commitment to delivering secure and compliant endpoint management solutions, particularly for our customers in the U.S. federal government sector. It’s a key step in helping them streamline, modernize, and enhance their IT operations in line with the highest security standards. Ultimately, these efforts help safeguard public trust and data, supporting a stronger, more secure digital future for society.”
By actively pursuing FedRAMP compliance, 1E further helps governmental customers mitigate risks, improve operational efficiency, and meet compliance obligations, including improving FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act) scores. As federal agencies continue to transition from legacy on-premises systems to cloud-based environments, the 1E platform enables them to retire outdated infrastructure, reduce costs, and mitigate risks from modern cyber threats, helping them focus on their core missions.
Additionally, 1E has earned the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP) level 2 certification. Developed by the state of Texas, and modeled after programs such as FedRAMP, this certification establishes stringent cybersecurity standards and provides a comprehensive framework for assessing, certifying, and continuously monitoring cloud computing services that handle data for Texas state agencies.
“With many government agencies in Texas already relying on 1E, we understand the importance of a secure cloud transition," said Stephen Tarleton, CMO and GM of the Americas at 1E. “Achieving TX-RAMP level 2 certification allows us to deliver reliable and secure solutions tailored to the needs of these agencies. We enable our customers to operate with confidence and focus on their core mission of serving the public effectively.”
