How do CMMC and FedRAMP impact cloud security requirements?

Both CMMC and FedRAMP strengthen cloud security, but they go about this task in different ways.

FedRAMP sets a unified framework of controls based on NIST 800-53 to ensure cloud service providers maintain consistent security to government-approved standards. CMMC extends beyond cloud environments. It requires defense contractors to implement cybersecurity organization-wide best practices to safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

When cloud solutions are used in defense contracts, there is often an overlap between FedRAMP and CMMC. This means that using FedRAMP-certified cloud providers usually helps organizations meet parts of their CMMC requirements.
