Many federal agencies struggle with limited staff and fragmented security tools, making it hard to assess and manage cyber risk. Qualys addresses this with a unified cyber risk management platform that delivers broad visibility and control across the entire risk surface. Now FedRAMP High Authorized, the Qualys Government Platform offers vulnerability management, compliance, endpoint detection and response (EDR), asset inventory, policy enforcement, web application security, and soon cloud-native application protection – all in a single, scalable solution designed to meet the highest federal security standards.

FedRAMP High is the most rigorous authorization level within the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, aligning with NIST 800-53 High Impact controls. It is reserved for cloud services that handle the government’s most sensitive, unclassified data. Platforms at this level are designed to support mission and business critical workloads.
