What is TX-RAMP?
Established by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR), TX-RAMP offers a standardized approach to security assessment, certification, and continuous monitoring of cloud computing services that process the data of Texas state agencies.
TX-RAMP has two levels of certification, each reflecting the degree of risk and the required security measures for the type of data being handled:
Level 1 is designed for cloud services that handle non-confidential, public, or low-impact information resources. To obtain Level 1 certification, businesses must demonstrate their compliance by submitting a self-assessment questionnaire, which is reviewed and approved by DIR if it meets the program’s standards.
Level 2 is meant for cloud services that deal with moderate or high-impact data, which, if compromised, could moderately or severely affect a company’s operations or individuals. This level requires even stricter security measures. To achieve Level 2 certification, businesses must provide detailed assessments and documentation and, if needed, third-party assessments.
This level of certification validates a business’ ability to protect the most sensitive data.
Modo’s Continued Commitment to Security and Trust
With TX-RAMP Level 1 certification, Modo Campus has proven its ability to meet rigorous security requirements for non-confidential, public, and low-impact information resources. We value the trust and partnership with our college customers in Texas. Modo is committed to maintaining this certification and pursuing TX-RAMP Level 2 certification, demonstrating Modo Campus’ capability to securely handle moderate or high impact data and information resources.
