Authorization & Accreditation
Ensuring Trust: Excellence in Authorization & Accreditation Services
In the contemporary digital landscape, Authorization and Accreditation (A&A) processes are the gatekeepers of trust, ensuring systems and networks are secure, compliant, and reliable. With an escalating complexity in cybersecurity threats and an ever-increasing demand for compliance with regulatory standards, our specialized Authorization & Accreditation services aim to fortify your security posture and instill confidence among your stakeholders.
Our Authorization and Accreditation services are characterized by a systematic, comprehensive, and proactive approach, meticulously designed to validate your systems’ security measures, ensure regulatory compliance, and establish a continuous monitoring framework.
Unifying the ‘Zero Trust’ and Risk Management Framework (RMF), we strongly emphasize the Authorization and Accreditation (A&A) process. Our strategy pivots around the six-step RMF methodology, including the categorization of information systems, selection and implementation of security controls, controls assessment, system authorization, and ongoing monitoring.
Initially, our experts conduct an in-depth evaluation of your information systems, categorizing them based on the associated risk levels. This ‘Zero Trust’ approach allows us to precisely allocate security measures and resources, centering our focus on areas most critical to your operations.
Following this, we carefully select and deploy security controls, custom-fit for each system’s unique requirements. In alignment with ‘Zero Trust’ principles, best practices, and regulatory mandates, we utilize technical, administrative, and physical controls to guarantee a robust and comprehensive security strategy.
After the implementation phase, we thoroughly assess the security controls, verifying their effectiveness in mitigating the identified risks. This assessment provides a clear insight into your systems’ security posture, highlighting potential vulnerabilities and offering actionable recommendations for improvement.
The authorization stage involves a detailed analysis of the system’s risk profile and deciding whether to authorize its operation. As part of this, we provide an Authorization Package, which includes all documentation related to the security controls, assessment, and proposed risk mitigation strategies.
Finally, we understand that security is not a one-time event but an ongoing process. Therefore, we implement a robust continuous monitoring framework, ensuring that your security posture evolves with emerging threats and changing regulatory landscapes.
For the Jarvis effort, we implemented a robust Continuous Monitoring program and worked closely with security assessors and authorization officials to streamline approval of security relevant changes to the S2P baseline. This was done through automated generation of body of evidence artifacts in the DevSecOps pipeline, and automatically approving updated versions of software after meeting published vulnerability assessment thresholds.
In conclusion, our Authorization and Accreditation services are designed to build and maintain the trust in your information systems. By partnering with us, you’re investing in robust security, continuous compliance, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your systems are protected and accredited by industry standards. Let’s build a secure and trusted digital environment together.
