Feature · TATER Security · Federal

The federal authorization pipeline, on live evidence.

Run the paperwork agencies require — RMF system records, a POA&M that populates itself from your findings, and a generated System Security Plan — on the same continuous M365 and endpoint scans that already drive your posture. Commercial, GCC, GCC High, and DoD tenants supported.

What it does

The ATO artifacts, generated from what you actually run.

Federal authorization normally means re-typing your posture into documents that are stale the moment they’re saved. TATER builds the RMF record, the POA&M, and the SSP from the live control results it already holds — so the paperwork tracks the environment instead of a point-in-time snapshot.

RMF system records

Stand up a system authorization record with its boundary, categorization, and control baseline, and track it through the RMF lifecycle — the anchor every other federal artifact hangs off.

POA&M auto-population

Failing controls flow straight into the Plan of Action & Milestones — weakness, source, and remediation seeded from the finding — so the POA&M is a living view of open gaps, not a document someone re-keys before each review.

SSP generation

Draft a System Security Plan that pulls control implementation status from live results, route it through review and approval, and keep it in sync with posture — instead of a Word file that drifts out of date the week after it’s signed.

DISA STIG coverage

DISA STIG controls are evaluated alongside CIS and CISA SCuBA against your M365 and endpoint configuration, so STIG findings sit in the same posture and the same POA&M as everything else.

Commercial-vs-federal profile

A profile toggle sets scope: a commercial org marks DISA STIG and other federal-only controls ⊘ Not Applicable so they don’t drag its score, while a federal or DoD-contractor tenant keeps them fully in scope. One platform, both postures.

Sovereign-cloud aware

Commercial, GCC, GCC High, and DoD tenants are all supported — scans target the correct sovereign Graph environment, and remediation guidance is written for the cloud the tenant actually runs in.

How it works

Categorize, generate, track to authorization.

The pipeline runs the RMF flow on top of the posture the platform already produces.

Categorize

Create the RMF system record, set its boundary and baseline, and select the applicable control set.

Generate

Auto-populate the POA&M from failing controls and draft the SSP from live implementation status.

Track

Work milestones to closure, keep the artifacts synced to posture, and route the SSP through approval toward ATO.

In practice

Three places the ATO grind gets shorter.

The ISSO, assessment prep

The POA&M has to reflect every open weakness before the assessor arrives, and it’s always behind.

Failing controls auto-populate the POA&M with source and remediation attached, so it mirrors real posture on the day of the assessment instead of last quarter’s.

The DoD contractor

Same tenant, but the contract requires DISA STIG scope that a commercial baseline would ignore.

The federal profile keeps STIG controls fully in scope and in the POA&M, while a sister commercial org marks them N/A — no separate tool, no double posture.

The compliance lead, GCC High

The environment is GCC High and generic tooling keeps pointing at commercial endpoints.

Scans hit the correct sovereign Graph environment and remediation guidance is written for GCC High, so the SSP and evidence describe the cloud the system truly runs in.
