Episode 4 - Ashley Mahan, FedRAMP Evangelist

Sep 17, 2018

Sept 17, 2018 | This fourth episode features Ashley Mahan, the General Services Administration’s first evangelist for the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program. She came to GSA in 2015 to stand up her role and help agencies understand FedRAMP — but she doesn’t have an educational background in IT. Rather, she majored in business and minored in real estate, which led her to a consulting company in Washington, D.C. serving federal agencies as a junior information assurance analyst —  or what we call today, cybersecurity. Hear how that led her to a master’s degree in IT, and more about her unique experiences one of the faces of FedRAMP.
