Amazon AWS Department of Defense (DoD) Cloud Computing (CC) Security Requirements Guide (SRG) Consulting and Advisory

Arlington provides comprehensive Amazon Web Services (AWS) consulting, advisory, and implementation services for DoD contractors having to comply with the Department of Defense (DoD) Cloud Computing (CC) Security Requirements Guide (SRG). Per a DoD memorandum put forth in December, 2014, “...For more sensitive DoD unclassified data or missions…[the] DoD has developed cloud security requirements and guidance that go beyond FedRAMP…”. With Arlington, we offer industry leading cloud security solutions for AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Salesforce, and more.

As such, the Cloud Computing (CC) Security Requirements Guide (SRG) outlines the security model by which DoD will leverage cloud computing, along with the security controls and requirements necessary for using cloud-based solutions. The CC SRG applies to DoD-provided cloud services and those provided by a contractor on behalf of the department, i.e., a commercial cloud service provider or integrator.
