FedRAMP is a federal program that standardizes the security assessment, authorization, and ongoing monitoring of cloud products and services used by the United States government. Skyhigh DSPM joins Skyhigh Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) and Skyhigh Secure Web Gateway (SWG) as FedRAMP High certified solutions that exemplify the company’s dedication to safeguarding sensitive data and access in regulated public and private sector industries.

Federal agencies and contractors are managing more mission-critical data than ever before, including vast amounts of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). They face an expanding array of data threats and must adhere to strict government mandates like CMMC and NIST. Achieving the necessary level of visibility and control can be operationally complex when integrating standalone DSPM, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and SSE tools— and it’s made even more difficult by the proliferation of shadow data and cloud vulnerabilities.

“Skyhigh DSPM receiving FedRAMP High authorization underscores both the strength of our technology and our long-term commitment to the public sector,” said Sanjay Castelino, president at Skyhigh Security. “As the latest product in our portfolio to achieve this designation, it reflects the continued momentum we’re building across our platform and our sustained investment in meeting the federal government’s most stringent security requirements. This milestone enables agencies to innovate with confidence and sends a clear message to the market: we are raising the bar for security, compliance, and mission-ready performance in even the most demanding environments.”

Why Skyhigh DSPM is essential for federal enterprises:

Skyhigh Security offers one of the strongest DSPM solutions in the market by embedding DSPM within its existing SSE framework. Leveraging unified data classification and real-time policy enforcement, the platform provides comprehensive visibility across SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS environments. This visibility extends to web, email, and private applications, allowing federal agencies to manage sensitive data more accurately while reducing false positives. Furthermore, Skyhigh Security extends these protections to GenAI applications, offering granular controls that prevent sensitive data from being ingested into AI training models.

Other key benefits include:

• Achieving Mandate Compliance: DSPM provides continuous monitoring, automated risk management, and reduced false positive incidents, which is critical for federal agencies required to prove continuous compliance with NIST, CMMC, and other mandates.
• Securing High-Impact Data (CUI/PII): By providing a centralized view of data usage and integrating Skyhigh Security’s advanced DLP capabilities (like OCR, EDM and IDM), Skyhigh DSPM enables proactive risk management and protects sensitive data in motion and at rest across both SaaS and IaaS environments.
• Enforcing Tailored Data Access: The solution enables organizations to secure access to data in cloud resources (both sanctioned and Shadow IT, e.g. Gen AI) and private applications, allowing agencies to maintain productivity while enforcing granular, tailored data access policies based on user, device, and location.
• Streamlined Risk Mitigation: By leveraging Skyhigh DSPM, federal security teams can review and resolve risks to sensitive data, apply real-time controls to prevent data exfiltrations, and simplify remediation tasks, all of which are vital for maintaining a strong security posture in high-impact environments.

With FedRAMP High certified capabilities, Skyhigh Security is committed to helping customers embark on their DSPM journeys and achieve a robust data security posture seamlessly.
