FedRAMP 20x on GCP
On GCP, Cloud Identity / IAM, Organization Policy, Cloud Logging / SCC, and Cloud KMS are the usual generators. Organization-scoped assets that are not in the offering must be listed as out of scope, not quietly omitted.
Educational resource only. scm.cc is not a FedRAMP Recognized Independent Assessor (3PAO) and is not FedRAMP-authorized; it grants no authorization, certification, or assessment outcome. FedRAMP.gov is the authoritative source. This is not legal advice.
Technical detail
Security Command Center findings are collector facts. Map them in the SDR to the KSI they actually test. A CIS benchmark score is not a hidden official 20x requirement.
How to implement
Prefer asset inventory + policy exports that can be replayed. See KSI-SVC and KSI-MLA family pages for encryption and logging indicators.
Common mistakes
- Using a project-level screenshot while the SDR claims organization coverage. - Treating SCC severity as a FedRAMP class.
