Overview

RackWare provides industry-leading Assessment, Cloud Migration, Backup, and Disaster Recovery (DR) solutions designed to meet the stringent security and compliance requirements of FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 (IL5) environments. With a focus on automation, security, and reliability, RackWare ensures seamless workload mobility across FedRAMP-authorized and DoD-compliant clouds including Oracle US Government Cloud, Google Cloud Assured Workloads, Azure Government, and other secure environments.

RackWare Alignment with FedRAMP and IL5 Requirements

• End-to-End Data Encryption

  All data transferred by RackWare uses SSH-based protocols, which are highly encrypted and support FIPS 140-2/3 validated cryptographic modules, satisfying federal and DoD encryption mandates for data in transit.
  

• Authorization and Access Control

  RackWare is a Linux-based application that can implement any authorization strategy and security controls available in Linux, including Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and integration with DoD Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems such as CAC/PIV and LDAP.
  

• Customer-Controlled, On-Premises Deployment

  RackWare provides on-premises software, it is not a SaaS offering. It is deployed on-premises within the customer’s secure environment, allowing full control over data handling, storage, and access — a key IL5 requirement for handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and National Security Systems data.
  

• Secure Cloud & Network Integration

  RackWare supports Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) principles by supporting least privilege access, strong authentication, and segmentation, aligning with both FedRAMP and DoD SRG IL5 guidelines.
  

• Platform and OS Hardening

  RackWare operates on hardened Linux servers and supports deployment on FedRAMP- and DoDauthorized cloud infrastructures, ensuring secure configurations per NIST SP 800-53 controls and DISA STIG guidelines.
  

• Audit, Monitoring, and SIEM Integration

  RackWare integrates with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, facilitating centralized logging, audit trails, and automated compliance reporting — required for both FedRAMP and IL5 operational visibility.

Conclusion

RackWare delivers a secure, compliant, and scalable solution for federal agencies and DoD organizations operating in FedRAMP High and IL5 environments. By offering flexible, on-premises deployment, Linuxnative security, encrypted data transfer, and comprehensive support for NIST and DoD control frameworks, RackWare meets and exceeds the cybersecurity expectations for handling sensitive government workloads.
