FedRAMP Authorization

FedRAMP Authorized Video Surveillance

Deploy cloud-based video surveillance that meets federal security requirements. Surveillant implements NIST 800-53 controls across our infrastructure, providing federal agencies and contractors with the security authorization framework needed for government deployment.

The Challenge

Federal Agencies Need Cloud-Ready Surveillance

Federal agencies are mandated to use FedRAMP authorized cloud services, but most video surveillance platforms were never designed to meet the rigorous security requirements of NIST Special Publication 800-53. Agencies face a difficult choice between outdated on-premise systems that cannot leverage AI capabilities and commercial cloud platforms that lack the necessary federal security authorizations.

The FedRAMP authorization process requires cloud service providers to implement hundreds of security controls across seventeen control families, undergo rigorous third-party assessment, and maintain continuous monitoring. Few surveillance vendors have invested in this level of compliance infrastructure, leaving federal security teams with limited options for modern, AI-powered video analytics.

Government contractors face similar challenges. Organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information must use cloud services that meet FedRAMP Moderate baseline requirements, and their surveillance systems are no exception when those systems process or store footage from government facilities.

The Solution

Federal-Grade Cloud Surveillance

Surveillant implements NIST 800-53 security controls at the Moderate baseline across our entire cloud infrastructure. Our platform architecture is designed from the ground up to meet the stringent requirements that federal agencies demand, with controls spanning access management, incident response, configuration management, and continuous monitoring.

Our infrastructure operates in FedRAMP authorized cloud regions with FIPS 140-2 validated encryption modules. All data remains within authorized boundaries, with network architecture that enforces the segmentation and boundary protection controls federal assessors evaluate. Continuous monitoring provides real-time visibility into the security posture of the platform.

We maintain a comprehensive System Security Plan, conduct regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments, and provide the Plan of Action and Milestones documentation that agency Authorizing Officials need to grant and maintain Authority to Operate. Our compliance team works directly with agency security teams throughout the authorization process.

Federal Controls

NIST 800-53 Controls Built Into Every Layer

Security controls implemented across our infrastructure addressing the control families that federal security assessments evaluate.

FIPS 140-2 Encryption

All cryptographic operations use FIPS 140-2 validated modules. Data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher, meeting federal cryptographic standards.

Identity and Access Management

Multi-factor authentication, PIV card integration, and role-based access controls aligned with federal identity management requirements. Supports integration with agency identity providers.

Continuous Monitoring

Real-time security monitoring with automated vulnerability scanning, configuration compliance checking, and security event correlation. ConMon reports delivered to agency security teams on schedule.

System Security Plan

Comprehensive SSP documentation covering all applicable NIST 800-53 controls. Includes control implementation details, architecture diagrams, and data flow documentation for ATO packages.

Incident Response

Documented incident response procedures aligned with US-CERT reporting requirements. Automated alerting, forensic evidence preservation, and coordination protocols for federal incident handling.

Configuration Management

Baseline configurations, change management processes, and automated compliance verification ensure the platform maintains its security posture throughout the authorization lifecycle.
