dotCMS Successfully Achieves TX-RAMP Certification

Mar 19, 2024

dotCMS announced today that the leading hybrid-headless content management system is now TX-RAMP Level 2 certified.

TX-RAMP, the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program, is a framework established by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) to ensure the security of cloud computing services that process, store, or transmit data for state agencies, including institutions of higher education and public community colleges.

The program is built on baseline security requirements derived from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53. It offers two levels of certifications, with Level 2 requiring a more comprehensive assessment (325 controls) compared to Level 1 (124 controls). dotCMS has received a TX-RAMP Level 2 certification.

“I'm proud to announce our achievement of TX-RAMP Level 2 certification. This marks a significant accomplishment in our ongoing commitment to top-tier cybersecurity,” says Dr. Mehdi Karimi, Director of Cybersecurity at dotCMS. “It's a rigorous process, demanding extensive effort from our team, but it underscores our dedication to safeguarding our clients' data with the highest standards. This achievement is not just a reflection of our technical prowess, but a clear signal of our commitment to trust and security in an increasingly digital world.”

Receiving TX-RAMP, alongside their existing SOC Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, reinforced that dotCMS is committed to protecting its clients’ critical data and complying with applicable laws and regulations.
