(Nasdaq: APPN) today announced that Appian Government Cloud (AGC)
has attained an "In Process" designation for the Federal Risk and
Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High authorization. The

industry-leading security and availability, empowering federal
civilian, defense, and intelligence agencies to expedite their
missions securely and confidently.
AGC achieves "In Process" designation for
FedRAMP High, highlighting Appian's commitment to security and
availability.
"Appian was among the first companies in our industry to obtain
FedRAMP Moderate certification. Investing in FedRAMP High is the
next logical step and underscores Appian's dedication to equipping
our federal customers and partners with the most powerful and
secure Process Automation Cloud. Federal clients with the most
sensitive workloads no longer need compromise on functionality and
clients in all sectors benefit from Appian's new security
features," said Michael Beckley,
Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Appian. "This new FedRAMP
High 'In Process' designation ensures government access to Appian's
latest automation technology to modernize mission systems, case
management, acquisitions, grants, logistics, and more."
FedRAMP is a government-wide program that promotes the adoption
of secure cloud services across the federal government by providing
a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and
continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. FedRAMP
empowers agencies to use modern cloud technologies, with an
emphasis on security and protection of federal information.
The "In Process" designation is provided to cloud service
providers that are actively working toward a FedRAMP Authorization
and have partnered with a federal agency and committed to perform a
rigorous third-party security assessment. Appian Government Cloud's
"In Process" designation signifies its readiness to handle some of
the government's most sensitive, unclassified data, including data
associated with protecting lives and financial assets.
