Cyera officially announced achieving FedRAMP Class D Certified status today. Federal agencies formerly recognized this rigorous security milestone as FedRAMP High. Consequently, this major security clearance opens direct pathways for federal agencies to deploy agentic AI safely. Cyera completed this approval process just months after earning its initial listing. In contrast, traditional software certification pathways typically require 12 to 18 months. As a result, this rapid certification authorizes protection for sensitive FISMA High-impact government data.
Modern artificial intelligence technologies continue reshaping operational capabilities across government sectors. Therefore, maintaining verified trust inside core data platforms remains an essential security priority. Federal agencies constantly safeguard critical infrastructure, national security assets, and sensitive public records. As government leaders expand AI initiatives, security solutions must meet strict federal standards. Consequently, verified security platforms allow federal agencies to innovate without sacrificing compliance.
“Federal agencies aren’t experimenting with AI anymore, they’re scaling it into agentic systems that touch their most sensitive missions,” said Lamont Orange, Chief Trust Officer at Cyera. “This approval process set a high bar, proving how we secure the platform, how we operate it, and how we respond under real scrutiny. That same rigor carries over for every customer we serve, including those in banking, healthcare, and other highly regulated industries.”
Integrated Zero Trust Architecture and AI Governance
Federal agencies have actively prioritized building Zero Trust architectures in recent years. Official guidelines under OMB M-22-09 mandate continuous verification for identities and data structures. Furthermore, recent policy updates under OMB M-25-21 urge federal agencies to adopt AI tools rapidly. Yet, the agencies have to ensure full administrative control of such autonomous tools. In the past, IT executives utilized separate tools for collecting information on data, identity, and AI operations.
With Cyera, all such important security features can be brought under one roof. The unified platform works within the officially certified FedRAMP security boundary of federal agencies. Firstly, Data Security constantly detects, identifies, and secures sensitive data. Secondly, Identity Security guarantees protection of human, machine, and system service accounts. Thirdly, Agent Security enables control of real-time actions performed by AI agents. Thus, federal agencies receive full visibility, verification, and control of complex data environments.
