HP Security Software-as-a-Service Gets FedRAMP Authorization

The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) program is a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring of cloud products and services.

HP announced on Wednesday its HP Fortify on Demand security Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering has achieved authorization under the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) program.

FedRAMP is a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring of cloud products and services.

The company says HP Fortify on Demand allows government agencies to perform security assessments of application code and web site/web services testing without requiring any additional software to install or manage.

The product “is now provisionally authorized for government agency use to perform security assessments of application code and web site/web services testing, and end-to-end mobile application security testing,” HP said in Wednesday’s announcement.

“Organizations can no longer afford to simply respond to breaches as they arise, and as the only solution of its kind available with FedRAMP certification, HP Fortify on Demand quickly addresses the root cause of vulnerabilities by securing software from conception through the entire development lifecycle,” said Rob Roy, chief technology officer of U.S. Public Sector, Enterprise Security Products, HP.
