AFC-CSO-INB Maintain a FedRAMP Security Inbox

Providers MUST establish and maintain an email address to receive messages from FedRAMP; this inbox is a FedRAMP Security Inbox (FSI).

Warning: Be careful using a personal email tied to an individual for this inbox due to the significant risk to future communications after a change in personnel!

Notes

Unless otherwise notified, FedRAMP will use the listed Security Email on the Marketplace for these notifications.

If a provider establishes a new inbox in reaction to this guidance that is different from the Security Email then they must follow the AFC-CSO-NOC (Notification of Changes) rules to notify FedRAMP.

Artifacts

  • Email address to receive messages from FedRAMP

Related rules: AFC-CSO-NOC

NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 controls: SI-5

Defined terms: FedRAMP Security Inbox
AFC-CSO-NOC Notification of Changes

Providers MUST immediately notify FedRAMP of any changes to the email address for their FedRAMP Security Inbox.

Notification

Artifacts

  • Process, manual or automated, to notify FedRAMP of changes in the FedRAMP Security Inbox

Providers MUST treat any email originating from an @fedramp.gov or @gsa.gov email address as if it was sent from FedRAMP by default; if such a message is confirmed to originate from someone other than FedRAMP then the FedRAMP Security Inbox rules no longer apply.

Artifacts

  • Configuration settings for FSI mailbox
  • Automated validation to check FSI mailbox configuration

Defined terms: FedRAMP Security Inbox
AFC-CSO-RCV Receive Email Without Disruption

Providers MUST receive and react to email messages from FedRAMP without disruption and without requiring additional actions from FedRAMP.

Providers MUST complete the required actions in Emergency or Emergency Test designated messages sent by FedRAMP within the timeframe included in the message.

Note

Timeframes may vary by FedRAMP Certification class.
