Title

Notification Mechanisms

Control

Providers MAY notify necessary parties in a variety of ways as long as the mechanism for notification is clearly documented in the FedRAMP Certification Package and easily accessible.

Discussion

The sharing mechanism should be designed based on the needs of the provider and their customers and may vary between providers.
The default sharing mechanism for most providers during the SCN beta was to send an email to agency customers and upload a copy of the notification to the provider's secure sharing location.
