Cisco Accelerates FedRAMP Compliance through Collaboration with AWS

Cisco accelerates FedRAMP compliance with AWS experts.

Cisco's accelerated deployment

Cisco is a global leader in networking and security solutions. Through its Security Service Edge solution, Cisco Secure Access (CSA), and Cisco Umbrella (the security service at the core of CSA) for government, the company provides zero trust security and protected access from your devices, anywhere. Cisco serves enterprises and public sector organizations worldwide with its cloud-delivered security solutions.

Cisco leverages AWS Professional Services and Training to align with FedRAMP, accelerate deployment, and achieve its 12-month target to enable service for U.S. government customers.

Accelerating deployment

Cisco needed to align with FedRAMP to serve to U.S. government customers. Security experts from AWS Professional Services delivered security architecture guidance and runbooks to automate cloud-native security capabilities on AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, and worked with Cisco as it built robust DevSecOps and security operations capabilities. Cisco teams also strengthened their expertise through AWS Training and Certification. This comprehensive approach enabled Cisco to meet its aggressive 12-month target, deploy in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, and successfully offer its services to U.S. government customers.

Cisco worked with AWS Professional Services to build security best practices and automation into its Cisco Umbrella product. This collaboration accelerated development times, enabling Cisco to meet its 12-month deployment target.
