Knightscope Achieves Full FedRAMP® Authorization, Unlocking Federal Growth
Knightscope (Nasdaq: KSCP) has achieved full Authority to Operate (ATO) through the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP®), expanding beyond its initial VA-sponsored authorization. This certification validates the company's cybersecurity infrastructure and compliance with federal government requirements.
The FedRAMP authorization enables broader deployment of Knightscope's autonomous security solutions across federal agencies, particularly the K5 Autonomous Security Robot (ASR) and other security technologies. Federal agencies can now streamline procurement through the FedRAMP Marketplace, reducing acquisition time and complexity.
This achievement builds upon Knightscope's previous Department of Veterans Affairs ATO and positions the company to serve the entire federal government marketplace requiring FedRAMP authorized vendors.
Knightscope (Nasdaq: KSCP) ha ottenuto l'Autorità Completa all'Operatività (ATO) attraverso il Programma di Gestione del Rischio e delle Autorizzazioni Federali (FedRAMP®), espandendosi oltre l'autorizzazione iniziale sponsorizzata dal VA. Questa certificazione convalida l'infrastruttura di sicurezza informatica dell'azienda e la conformità ai requisiti del governo federale.
L'autorizzazione FedRAMP consente una distribuzione più ampia delle soluzioni di sicurezza autonome di Knightscope tra le agenzie federali, in particolare il Robot di Sicurezza Autonomo K5 (ASR) e altre tecnologie di sicurezza. Le agenzie federali possono ora semplificare il processo di approvvigionamento attraverso il Marketplace FedRAMP, riducendo i tempi e la complessità di acquisizione.
Questo traguardo si basa sull'ATO precedente del Dipartimento degli Affari dei Veterani e posiziona l'azienda per servire l'intero mercato governativo federale che richiede fornitori autorizzati FedRAMP.
