Discussion Boards
Any member of the public may participate in our Community Update Discussions on GitHub:
- All FedRAMP Community Discussions
- 20x Pilot Discussions
- Rev5 Discussions
- Request for Comment Discussions
All participants in the 20x Phase Two pilot have been directed to ask questions in the FedRAMP community discussion boards to ensure all stakeholders have equal and fair access to information as FedRAMP changes - FedRAMP does not provide special answers to individual parties in private.
FSCAC Meetings
The Federal Secure Cloud Advisory Committee (FSCAC), established by GSA, is a statutory group of government officials and industry experts. It advises on improving FedRAMP and secure cloud adoption, aiming to resolve challenges, accelerate authorization, and enhance communication for compliant cloud use in federal agencies.
Meetings are held at least triannually and are open to the general public. For more information, please visit the GSA FSCAC website.
Additional Background
As a government program, FedRAMP has limitations on its ability to interact with the public compared to a typical private sector entity. For example, FedRAMP cannot ask for consensus opinions from the public, collect detailed structured feedback, provide business advice, or direct work. FedRAMP's standard disclaimers apply to all content provided by FedRAMP staff in the community updates.
The primary goals of the community updates are:
- Ensure FedRAMP has direct insight into community activities, goals, achievements, best practices, etc. in specific areas to inform the creation of standards and policies prior to their formal development.
- Ensure that FedRAMP stakeholders have equal public access to information from FedRAMP in an open forum, and semi-structured opportunities to work towards shared goals in different and innovative ways.
