Dynatrace Achieves FedRAMP Class D (High) "Initial Implementation" Status to Support Federal Government Customers' Most Sensitive Workloads
Achievement Advances Dynatrace's AI-Powered Observability Platform toward Federal Government's Highest Security Tier
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Dynatrace (NYSE: DT), the leading AI-powered observability platform, today announced it has achieved "Initial Implementation" status for Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Class D (High) certification. "Initial Implementation" means Dynatrace is currently in the implementation stage of its FedRAMP journey for the Class D (High) baseline, ahead of full certification. Once complete, the certification will enable federal agencies to leverage Dynatrace’s full platform to monitor, secure, and optimize mission-critical applications and infrastructure at the highest level of federal cloud security and compliance.
Federal agencies are adopting hybrid cloud architectures and accelerating AI adoption at the same time threat actors are using AI to accelerate the pace of attacks. Dynatrace's AI-powered observability platform is designed to scale across security baselines without requiring agencies to rearchitect infrastructure or switch vendors.
“The agencies running the nation's most critical missions face a compounding challenge: accelerating AI adoption and cloud modernization, all while meeting the government’s most stringent security requirements,” said Steve Tack, Chief Product Officer at Dynatrace. “Advancing to Class D (High) 'Initial Implementation’ status means federal agencies can start planning to bring Dynatrace's full AI-powered platform to their most sensitive and mission-critical workloads.”
Federal agencies across civilian, defense, and intelligence sectors have run mission-critical workloads on the Dynatrace platform for years, many in air-gapped environments. Advancing to Class D (High) positions Dynatrace among a small group of observability platforms pursuing FedRAMP's highest impact level, which requires nearly 420 security controls under NIST SP 800-53, roughly 30% more than the Class C (Moderate) baseline. FedRAMP High is reserved for the government's most sensitive unclassified data, covering workloads that support the nation's most essential operations.
Once full Class D (High) certification is achieved, agencies will gain access to Dynatrace's AI-powered observability platform at the highest federal security tier, including Grail®, Dynatrace's purpose-built data lakehouse for unified observability, security, and analytics; AI-powered anomaly detection and predictive analytics; and integrated application security monitoring from code to production, all deployable within agency-defined operational boundaries. Dynatrace is building Class D's (High) compliance requirements into its newest platform generation now, to help minimize the gap between certification and functionality.
