investors.atlassian.com - This Milestone Reflects the Company's Commitment to be a Strategic Partner for U.S. Government Customers
TEAM Anywhere/SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Atlassian Corporation (NASDAQ: TEAM), a leading provider of team collaboration and productivity software, today announced that Atlassian Government Cloud has received Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) authorization at the Moderate level. FedRAMP is a U.S. government program that promotes the adoption of cloud technologies across the federal government by providing a standardized approach to validating security and risk controls for cloud-based products and services.
With this authorization, U.S. federal, state, and local government entities, as well as their industry partners, can confidently adopt Atlassian Government Cloud, benefiting from seamless agency-wide collaboration, enhanced access to data-driven insights, and streamlined administrative processes. This also enables government agencies currently using Atlassian Data Center to migrate to Atlassian Government Cloud, accessing the latest innovations in cloud technology underpinned by world-class security, privacy, compliance, and reliability while also offloading server maintenance costs. Atlassian Government Cloud is available for Jira, Confluence, and Jira Service Management.
This significant milestone underscores Atlassian's investments to meet the stringent security and compliance needs of U.S. government customers and other organizations in highly regulated industries. Atlassian remains committed to meeting federal compliance and security standards with future investments such as FedRAMP High and U.S. Department of Defense Impact Level 5 (IL5) compliance.
