U.S. federal, state and local agencies will utilize SecurityScorecard’s Supply Chain Detection and Response (SCDR) to enhance supply chain security. The company recently announced it earned both State Risk and Authorization Management (StateRAMP) Ready status and the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Ready designation.

SecurityScorecard’s SCDR offers government agencies features to proactively identify and remediate third-party vulnerabilities in their supply chains. This program focuses on actively detecting critical vulnerabilities and issues within supplier ecosystems while promoting collaborative remediation efforts.

Steve Cobb, CISO at SecurityScorecard, commented on the current landscape for government agencies, stating that supply chain vulnerabilities are substantial and require a comprehensive understanding of governance complexities. He emphasized the importance of visibility and accountability in securing supply chains.

FedRAMP provides a standardized approach to security compliance for U.S. federal government cloud deployments. In late 2022, Congress codified FedRAMP as the definitive standard for such products. StateRAMP addresses state-specific security requirements, allowing organizations like SecurityScorecard to effectively meet various security expectations across states.
