Salesforce has become an essential platform for government and regulated industries, empowering agencies to deliver services, manage sensitive citizen data, and modernize digital operations. But with that opportunity comes risk. Salesforce is sprawling, highly customizable, and often underserved by generic security tools. Misconfigurations, permission sprawl, and insecure code can easily slip through, creating vulnerabilities that threaten mission readiness and compliance.
For public sector leaders, the challenge is clear: they need security solutions that are both Salesforce- specific and government-grade.
That’s why we’re proud to announce that AutoRABIT CodeScan and AutoRABIT Guard have achieved a FedRAMP Moderate Authorization to Operate (ATO).
These milestones reinforce our commitment to helping agencies secure Salesforce with solutions designed for their unique environment, aligned to the strictest U.S. government standards.
We’ll discuss what this means and why it’s so important:
1. The Public-Sector Security Challenge
Hidden Vulnerabilities in Configurations and Code
Salesforce’s power lies in its flexibility. But the same flexibility opens the door to risk. Improperly configured permissions, role sprawl, and unmanaged metadata changes create blind spots. At the same time, insecure code in Apex, Lightning components, and Flows can introduce weaknesses that attackers exploit.
Most agencies attempt to cover these gaps with generic security tools or manual reviews, but these approaches weren’t built for Salesforce. They miss the subtle risks unique to Salesforce’s architecture and leave critical vulnerabilities undetected.
Compliance Pressure and Audit Fatigue
For CIOs and CISOs, compliance is not optional. Regulated frameworks mandate continuous monitoring, audit-ready reporting, and least-privilege enforcement. Preparing for audits and ATO renewals is time-consuming, expensive, and disruptive. Every delay introduces operational risk and increases oversight costs.
Mission Disruption and Citizen Trust
At the core, this is not just a technology problem. It’s a mission problem. Security gaps in Salesforce don’t just threaten compliance. They disrupt agency operations, delay service delivery, and erode citizen trust. A single vulnerability in configuration or code can ripple out into reputational damage that takes years to repair.
2. Why FedRAMP Approval Matters
In this landscape, FedRAMP authorization is more than a certification. It’s proof of trust. It confirms that a solution has met rigorous government security standards, with controls aligned to NIST 800-53. FedRAMP isn’t easy to achieve. It requires continuous monitoring, cleared U.S.-based support, and operational maturity that most vendors simply cannot provide.
By earning a FedRAMP Moderate ATO for CodeScan and Guard, AutoRABIT demonstrates that our Salesforce security solutions are purpose-built for agencies that cannot compromise on compliance. It’s validation that agencies can rely on AutoRABIT not just for technical capability, but for the operational assurance required in federal environments.
3. AutoRABIT CodeScan: FedRAMP Moderate ATO for Salesforce Code Security
CodeScan has achieved a FedRAMP Moderate ATO, giving public-sector organizations a trusted solution to secure Salesforce code before it reaches production.
- Government-Ready Static Code Analysis: Automate scans for Apex, Visualforce, LWC, Flows, APIs, and metadata, catching vulnerabilities unique to Salesforce.
- Built-In Compliance Gates: Embed security and quality checks aligned with federal and industry standards directly into CI/CD pipelines.
- Audit-Ready Assurance: Generate evidence of secure coding practices for ATO renewals and compliance reviews.
For agencies, this means less manual code review, fewer costly rework cycles, and stronger protection of mission-critical data. With FedRAMP Moderate authorization, CodeScan is cleared for use in federal environments, reducing procurement risk and accelerating adoption.
4. AutoRABIT Guard: FedRAMP Moderate ATO for Salesforce Posture Management
While CodeScan secures code, Guard is designed to secure Salesforce configurations and posture. And we’re excited to share that Guard has achieved a FedRAMP Moderate ATO.
- Proactive Defense: Monitor configuration baselines to prevent drift, misconfigurations, and policy violations.
- Continuous Compliance: Deliver real-time monitoring and reporting aligned to frameworks like FedRAMP, FISMA, and NIST.
- Governance Ready: Enforce least privilege, track changes across orgs, and maintain complete audit trails.
By moving through the FedRAMP Moderate process, Guard is proving its readiness to deliver government-grade security controls for Salesforce environments. Guard joins CodeScan as part of a unified, FedRAMP Moderate-backed security platform for Salesforce.
5. Why a Unified Platform Matters
Individually, Guard and CodeScan solve critical problems. Together, they create the first Salesforce- specific security platform engineered for government and regulated industries.
- Configuration + Code Protection: Close vulnerabilities across both misconfigurations and insecure code.
- Continuous Monitoring + Automated Enforcement: Replace reactive audits with proactive, real-time compliance.
- Audit Confidence: Deliver FedRAMP Moderate-aligned dashboards and reports that simplify ATO renewals.
- Mission Assurance: Ensure sensitive citizen and agency data stays secure, operations remain uninterrupted, and trust is preserved.
This integrated approach goes beyond what fragmented tools can offer. Agencies no longer need to stitch together multiple solutions and hope for coverage. AutoRABIT provides end-to-end visibility and control, backed by FedRAMP Moderate authorization.
6. What This Means for Agencies
For federal CIOs and CISOs, the announcement carries clear implications:
Sustained Trust: With FedRAMP Moderate backing, agencies can demonstrate to auditors, oversight bodies, and citizens that they are protecting sensitive data with rigor.
Lower Procurement Risk: With FedRAMP Moderate approval, agencies can confidently adopt CodeScan today, knowing it meets the government’s highest security standards.
Future-Proof Security: With Guard’s FedRAMP-Moderate ATO, agencies gain assurance that posture management will soon carry the same level of validation.
Operational Efficiency: By automating compliance, reporting, and remediation, AutoRABIT reduces audit fatigue and frees staff to focus on mission delivery.
Raising the Standard for Salesforce Security
Yesterday’s security tools weren’t built for Salesforce, and yesterday’s standards aren’t enough for today’s public sector challenges. Agencies need solutions that are Salesforce- specific, government-grade, and proven under the strictest compliance frameworks.
With CodeScan and Guard achieving FedRAMP Moderate ATO, AutoRABIT delivers exactly that. A unified platform that safeguards configurations, secures code, automates compliance, and protects mission-critical operations without compromise.
FedRAMP Moderate approval isn’t just a milestone for AutoRABIT. It’s a signal to the public sector: the standard for Salesforce security has been raised.
