U.S. Government agencies will be able to use Wasabi GovCloud following full authorization for secure, affordable cloud storage

Wasabi Technologies, the hot cloud storage company, today announced its cloud storage service for the U.S. Federal Government, Wasabi GovCloud, has achieved Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP^®) Ready status.

FedRAMP is a U.S. Government-wide program that standardizes the security assessment, authorization and continuous monitoring of cloud products and services. With its FedRAMP Ready certification, Wasabi is now one step closer to full FedRAMP authorization, which will allow more Government entities to take advantage of its industry-leading cloud storage service. This milestone is a significant step in Wasabi’s mission to deliver a secure, affordable, and high-performance cloud storage solution to U.S. Government agencies and other Public Sector organizations that need an additional copy of their data for data security or regulatory compliance.

As the Federal Government strives to optimize its budgets, Wasabi provides a cost-effective and secure alternative to traditional hyperscaler cloud services, offering a straightforward pricing model that eliminates egress and API request fees, and costs up to 80% less to provide greater budget predictability and significant savings. Wasabi’s single hot storage tier delivers higher performance for mission-critical use cases, including backup and recovery, surveillance, and archiving, for reliable, fast, and efficient data management. Additionally, Wasabi delivers enterprise-grade security and compliance, ensuring that federal agencies can modernize their IT infrastructure with high-performance cloud storage while meeting rigorous government standards.

“Federal agencies are under immense pressure to cut costs and drive more efficiency across the board, all while maintaining best of breed technology solutions,” said David Boland, vice president, cloud strategy, Wasabi Technologies. “By achieving FedRAMP Ready status, Wasabi becomes a trusted partner, supporting these agencies with a cloud storage solution that optimizes their budgets without sacrificing performance, freeing them up to instead focus on essential operations."
