CertCop – Cloud Security & FedRAMP
Exam Code : FRCS-CertCop-003
The Cloud Security & FedRAMP – Fourth Edition training program provides the technical cloud security knowledge and FedRAMP expertise required by Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), federal agencies, assessors, compliance professionals, security teams, and other stakeholders involved in securing and authorizing cloud services for U.S. government use. The course covers cloud architecture, shared responsibility, Zero Trust, IAM, encryption, network and cloud-native security, along with key federal cybersecurity frameworks such as FISMA, FIPS 199, FIPS 200, NIST RMF, NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5, NIST SP 800-37, NIST SP 800-171, and the FedRAMP Authorization Act. It also explains the complete FedRAMP certification and authorization lifecycle, including readiness, control implementation, 3PAO assessment, documentation, risk acceptance, Marketplace listing, authorization reuse, vulnerability management, and continuous monitoring, while introducing modern practices such as FedRAMP 20x, CR26, Key Security Indicators (KSIs), OSCAL, machine-readable evidence, compliance automation, and continuous risk-based certification. Practical security implementation across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud further prepares learners to support real-world cloud security, compliance, assessment, and ongoing authorization activities.
