Title

Responsible Information Sharing

Control

Providers MUST provide sufficient information in FedRAMP Certification Data to support agency authorization decisions but SHOULD NOT include sensitive information that would likely enable a threat actor to gain unauthorized access, cause harm, disrupt operations, or otherwise have a negative adverse impact on the cloud service offering.

Discussion

This is not a license to exclude accurate risk information, but specifics that would likely lead to compromise should be abstracted. A breach of confidentiality with FedRAMP Certification Data should be anticipated by a secure cloud service provider.
