TX-RAMP

The Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP) is a US State program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. TX-RAMP was created to respond to the state mandate, Government Code Section 2054.0593 requiring a Cloud Computing State Risk and Authorization Management Program. The Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program Manual (Program Manual) defines the processes, procedures, and compliance requirements relating to the use of cloud computing services by Texas state agencies.
