1Kosmos has achieved FedRAMP High Authorization, the highest level of security compliance for its phishing-resistant identity verification platform. This designation validates that the platform meets stringent security requirements necessary for handling sensitive federal data. The platform is available as part of FedHive's FedRAMP High Impact offerings and is the only Kantara-certified full service credential service provider platform with a FedRAMP High authorization.

1Kosmos, a leader in unifying identity proofing and passwordless authentication, has achieved FedRAMP High Authorization for its phishing-resistant identity verification platform. This designation validates that the 1Kosmos platform meets the stringent security requirements necessary to handle the federal government’s most sensitive unclassified data, including law enforcement, national security, financial, and healthcare systems [2].

The authorization was granted following a rigorous, multi-month assessment process. With 421 required controls—covering advanced cryptography, automated flaw remediation, personnel screening, and boundary protection—FedRAMP High is designed to protect against security breaches that could result in severe or catastrophic effects, including mission failure or irreparable institutional damage [2].

1Kosmos is now the only Kantara-certified full service credential service provider (CSP) platform that also holds a FedRAMP High authorization. This milestone reflects the company's commitment to delivering the highest level of trust, privacy, and assurance to its government and enterprise customers [2].

The 1Kosmos platform offers unified identity proofing and phishing-resistant authentication in a single, secure solution that verifies users with biometrics and government-issued credentials. It applies advanced liveness detection to block deepfakes, bots, and spoofing attempts, unlike traditional methods that rely on passwords or outdated MFA [2].

With FedRAMP High Authorization, federal agencies and contractors can use the 1Kosmos platform to secure high-impact systems without compromising user experience or compliance. The platform helps agencies modernize digital identity systems and protect against advanced threats like identity impersonation, credential compromise, and account takeover—while ensuring adherence to NIST, FIPS, and Executive Order 14028 mandates [2].
