Accelerated ATO FAQs

An Authority to Operate (ATO) is the formal approval a government agency gives before software can run on its networks. FIPS and post-quantum crypto are on by default. SPIRE gives each workload its own identity. Every request is audited. The platform then records security evidence automatically while systems run. One customer saw 62% faster audits.

Greymatter.io writes an audit record for every request: who accessed what, when, where, and how. Teams search that record in the Greymatter.io Console instead of gathering screenshots and spreadsheets by hand.

Yes. Greymatter.io supports continuous ATO by pinning releases to fixed, approved versions and keeping a history of approved policy changes. Teams ship updates without restarting the full approval review.

Yes. Greymatter.io is FIPS 140-3 validated (CMVP #5191), fully aligned to the NIST Zero Trust standard, and supports DoD Impact Levels 2 through 6+. Agencies cite that validation when documenting encryption controls for an ATO.

Yes. Greymatter.io runs the same pinned release in the cloud, on premises, and on fully disconnected networks, pulling images from a private registry you control. Evidence is recorded the same way on all networks, so teams avoid rebuilding proof for new sites.
