VisibleThread on the FedRAMP Marketplace: Secure Cloud Deployment for Federal Contractors
The FedRAMP Marketplace is the official directory maintained by the General Services Administration (GSA) where cloud service providers demonstrate compliance with the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) security standards. Federal agencies use it to identify pre-authorized cloud solutions that meet government security requirements.
For many of the organizations we work with, this is a welcome addition to an already trusted set of options. It reflects the same commitment to security we have held for fifteen years, now extended into a certified cloud environment. FedRAMP authorization means VisibleThread’s cloud environment has been independently assessed against NIST 800-53 security controls and approved for use by federal agencies, removing the security review burden from individual agency procurement teams.
FedRAMP Authorized Cloud and On-Premises Deployment Options for Federal Contractors
For many of our customers, running VisibleThread inside their own environment is the requirement, and that is not changing. Customer-hosted and on-premises deployment, including fully air-gapped installations in SCIF environments, remains a core part of what we offer and is in production today with some of the largest defense contractors and aerospace enterprises in the world.
FedRAMP GovCloud is for customers who want a certified cloud environment rather than hosting the platform themselves. It sits alongside the options you already rely on. Whichever you choose, you get the same platform and the same security posture.
VisibleThread now supports:
- FedRAMP GovCloud, a secure cloud environment for customers who prefer not to host the platform themselves.
- Customer-hosted on-premises, including air-gapped and SCIF deployments, for total data sovereignty inside your own firewalls.
- Customer-hosted private cloud, dedicated isolated instances that meet strict regulatory boundaries, typically running on Azure GCC High or AWS GovCloud (US).
- Public cloud (multi-tenant), a secure, scalable option ideal for non-regulated industries, offering instant access with no setup or maintenance, managed by VisibleThread with continuous updates, high availability, and reliable performance.
Fifteen years of building for high-stakes work
For more than fifteen years, VisibleThread has deployed the right technology for the task rather than chasing trends, refining workspace management, opportunity analysis, bid writing, and compliance matrix automation to solve real proposal and contract risk. The FedRAMP listing is a direct extension of that work, giving federal contractors one more way to meet their security requirements. It is why eleven of the top fifteen US government contractors run on VisibleThread today.
A word from our leadership
For fifteen years we have delivered mission-critical accuracy without ever compromising on data security. This FedRAMP listing gives our federal and defense customers more choice.
Laura Mathews, CEO of VisibleThread
Whether a customer works out of a SCIF, hosts on their own infrastructure, or uses our secure cloud, they get the same platform deployed securely and purposefully. The teams we work with operate in some of the most demanding security environments there are.
FedRAMP GovCloud lets us take on the operational load, the hosting, the patching, the updates, so their people can focus on the mission rather than the infrastructure.
