• MongoDB (MDB, Financial) is pursuing FedRAMP High and Impact Level 5 (IL5) authorizations.
• Currently trusted by 13 U.S. Federal Cabinet-level agencies and all Department of Defense branches.
• State of Utah implemented MongoDB Atlas for a 25% increase in benefits processing speed.

MongoDB, Inc. (MDB), a leading name in database solutions, has announced its commitment to achieve Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High and Impact Level 5 (IL5) authorizations for its product, MongoDB Atlas for Government. This strategic move will enable MongoDB to manage highly sensitive, unclassified data for the U.S. public sector, expanding its market reach within federal agencies that demand stringent security measures.

The MongoDB Atlas for Government platform, operating currently at a FedRAMP Moderate level, is already a trusted solution for 13 U.S. Federal Cabinet-level agencies, including every branch of the Department of Defense. The platform employs MongoDB’s proprietary Queryable Encryption technology to ensure data protection throughout its lifecycle, which is increasingly critical for federal clients.

Mongodb’s Queryable Encryption is a first-of-its-kind in-use encryption technology, designed to maintain the privacy and security of sensitive data during its entire lifecycle—whether in transit, at rest, or in use. Furthermore, decryption happens only client-side, ensuring additional layers of data security.

A notable success story is the State of Utah, which utilized MongoDB Atlas for Government to manage state benefit eligibility data. The state reported a 25% boost in the speed of benefits calculations, drastically reduced management times, and an improved disaster recovery time, from 58 hours to just 5 minutes.

This move to secure FedRAMP High and IL5 authorizations aligns with MongoDB’s ambition to support critical government sectors such as emergency services, law enforcement, financial, and health systems. Achieving these authorizations will allow MongoDB to serve federal agencies managing the most sensitive unclassified data, positioning it as a formidable competitor for high-value, long-term government contracts.
