CHANTILLY, Va., May 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Perspecta Inc. (NYSE:
PRSP), a leading U.S. government services provider, announced today
that it renewed its accreditation to evaluate cloud-based solutions
for federal government agencies as a Federal Risk and Authorization
Management Program (FedRAMP) Third Party Assessment Organization
(3PAO). Perspecta is one of fewer than 40 accredited assessors in
the United States with this
capability.
In order to maintain its 3PAO status, Perspecta underwent a
rigorous assessment conducted by the American Association for
Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA) to verify the company's technical
competence according to FedRAMP requirements and compliance with
international standards. Successful completion of the requirements
was acknowledged via A2LA certificate number 3825.01. A2LA is an
independent accreditation body that performs competency and
independence assessments of 3PAOs as part of the FedRAMP
program.
"With the federal government growing more focused on utilizing
and migrating to FedRAMP certified services, this accreditation
validates our commitment to delivering the quality solutions our
customers can rely on," said Mac
Curtis, president and chief executive officer, Perspecta
Inc. "As a long-standing 3PAO, we look forward to leveraging our
expertise in cloud migration and cybersecurity to partner and
consult with our government customers along every step of their
cloud modernization journeys."
FedRAMP is a government-wide program that provides a
standardized approach to security assessment, authorization and
continuous monitoring for cloud-based services. Under the Security
Assessment Framework, 3PAOs are required to be accredited by A2LA
in order to be recognized by the FedRAMP Project Management Office
(PMO).
Perspecta received the original accreditation to become a
FedRAMP 3PAO in June 2013.
