Government, Education, Healthcare and Financial Services organizations
hosting applications and data in the cloud must
meet the Continuous Monitoring requirements for FedRAMP,
FISMA, HIPAA, PCI-DSS or NIST.Learn about implementing a bulletproof continuous monitoring and management system in AWS that includes:

Cloud instance hardening and protection
Cloud configuration integrity monitoring
Container and VM vulnerability scanning
Anti-Virus and malware protection
File integrity monitoring
Security Incident and Response using Splunk
AWS compute and storage resource monitoring and management

We shared practical implementation examples, tools and techniques based on years of implementing secure and
trusted environments for large security focused customers.

Dear Agencies: Let’s Make CR26 Work

FedRAMP’s Consolidated Rules for 2026 move federal cloud compliance toward structured, machine-readable certification data. The transition depends on agencies modernizing their own processes while preserving reciprocity and risk-based security.

209 Controls, 46 KSIs, and One Very Avoidable Compliance Catastrophe

FedRAMP is moving toward 20x, but federal agencies still rely on NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 evidence for authorization decisions. Johann Dettweiler explores how CSPs can use one evidence layer, KSI-to-control mapping, and automation to support both.

FedRAMP 20x is moving federal cloud security in the right direction. But if agencies still require duplicative documentation and assessments, have we really solved the problem? Johann Dettweiler examines the next challenge: reciprocity.
