Title
Upgrading Certification Class
Control
Providers MUST apply for a new FedRAMP Certification to upgrade their Certification Class; all applicable requirements MUST be met in advance.
Discussion
Upgrade paths include moving from A to B, C, or D; B to C or D; and C to D.
The preferred path is to incrementally update the implementation and assurance commitments within the current Certification Class until the provider has met all requirements for the target Certification Class, then apply for the new Certification Class.
