FedRAMP

JAB

The Joint Authorization Board, the FedRAMP governance body composed of the Chief Information Officers of the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, and General Services Administration. The JAB issued Provisional Authorities to Operate that any agency could rely on without repeating the assessment. The JAB was sunset under FedRAMP 20x in 2025; authorization decisions now sit with the FedRAMP Program Management Office and individual agency Authorizing Officials.
