The Original 3PAO. Setting the Standard for FedRAMP.
As the industry’s longest-standing FedRAMP-recognized Independent Assessment Service, Lunarline has set the standard for federal cloud compliance since the inception of FedRAMP. Today, backed by the enterprise stability of Motorola Solutions, we don’t just assess your systems—we partner with you to validate mission-critical resilience.
Our Value
Engineered for Authorization, Right from the Start
Navigating the complexities of federal compliance shouldn’t mean enduring endless cycles of rework and audit fatigue. While other firms treat assessments as a volume game, focusing on churning through thousands of basic audits in a “single motion,” Lunarline engineers a clear, strategic path to certification.
As the original “Regulatory Historians,” we have successfully guided Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) through every iteration of federal cloud security. We understand the true intent behind the 2022 FedRAMP Authorization Act and OMB Memorandum M-24-15, ensuring that your architecture meets the highest standards of the federal government without the guesswork.
WHy Lunarline?
Mastering the New Era of FedRAMP
The shift to the FedRAMP 20x Model and introduction of the FedRAMP Consolidated Rules introduces an entirely new paradigm for cloud security. As one of the few assessors that have participated in a 20x pilot, Lunarline’s seasoned assessors are already operating at the forefront of these transitions, ensuring your certification is not just current, but future-proofed.
Navigating FedRAMP 20x: FedRAMP 20x is a new approach to cloud security assessment that shifts the focus from static documentation to continuous, automated, machine-readable validation. Our teams are actively leveraging automated, machine-readable JSON schemas and validating against the new Rulesets and Key Security Indicators (KSIs). We possess the deep technical expertise needed to assess Class A, B, C and D systems in each requirement area including:
- Boundary Rulesets
- Cybersecurity Education
- Change Management
- Cloud-Native Architectures
- Identity and Access Management
- Incident Response
- Monitoring, Logging, and Auditing
- Policy and Inventory
- Recovery Planning
- Supply Chain Risk
- Service Configuration
Seamless Rev 5 Transitions: Whether you are pursuing a new certification or transitioning an existing package, we deeply understand the intent behind the new Rev 5 rulesets, such as updated vulnerability scanning and incident communication requirements, ensuring a smooth transition or path to the FedRAMP Marketplace.
Streamlined for Success
Explore our Assessment Methodology
This four-phase methodology defines how Lunarline conducts independent security assessments. The process guides your system from initial architectural scoping through technical validation, report delivery, and ongoing continuous monitoring.
PHASE 1
Strategize & Scope
We don’t believe in generic, one-size-fits-all checklists. We take the time to understand your unique cloud architecture and business objectives up front. By aligning on a customized, highly accurate assessment scope from day one, we eliminate surprises and set the stage for a seamless process with zero guesswork.
PHASE 2
Assess
Our seasoned assessors and elite offensive security teams go beyond passive checks to validate your code, logic, and telemetry pipelines, and indicators of true operational resilience. We work with you to rigorously validate your systems to ensure they protect mission-critical data and stand up to real-world adversaries, not just paper audits.
PHASE 3
Report & Certify
A flawless technical assessment means nothing if the reporting doesn’t meet strict federal standards. Leveraging our deep history as the industry’s longest-standing 3PAO, we translate our findings into a high-quality, precise report – delivering the elite credibility and clarity that Authorizing Officials trust to grant your authorization with confidence.
PHASE 4
Continuous Partnership
Earning your certification is just the beginning. Federal compliance requires ongoing vigilance through Continuous Monitoring. We bring decades of operational stability to the table, ensuring we will be your trusted partner for assessments, strategic growth, and compliance year after year.
