FedRAMP Con Mon - Efficiently & Effectively Managing SLAs for RA-5d Requirement | Qualys

Summary: Qualys published a FedRAMP Vulnerability Mitigation by SLA dashboard to help Cloud Service Providers track remediation deadlines under the RA-5d control. Under FedRAMP Continuous Monitoring, CSPs must send reviewers updated artifacts every 30 days showing that outstanding high-risk vulnerabilities have been mitigated, with risk based on CVSS v3 base score, falling back to CVSS v2 or the vendor's score when unavailable.

Key Takeaway: FedRAMP authorization depends on proving every 30 days that high-risk vulnerabilities are mitigated, so a CSP that cannot show remediation status by severity and open time risks its authority to operate.
