OpenPolicy Achieves FedRAMP Class C Certification Through Expanded Partnership with Knox Systems

Certification brings mission-aligned, SI-powered policy intelligence to federal agencies, helping teams anticipate policy change, understand its impact, and act with confidence

NEW YORK and WASHINGTON, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenPolicy, the SI-powered platform for policy intelligence, today announced it has achieved Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Class C Certification in partnership with Knox Systems (Knox), the largest, longest-running federal managed cloud. Building on the companies' existing strategic partnership, federal agencies can now securely access OpenPolicy's platform and policy database to understand what is changing across the policy landscape, what it means for their mission, and drive policy-informed decisions and processes.

Government agencies operate in an increasingly complex policy environment spanning regulations, standards, funding priorities, global and local policy changes, administrative direction changes, and cross-agency initiatives impacting different government personas. The challenge isn't accessing more policy information. It's proactively identifying what matters to a specific agency, task, workstream, determining impact on mission and programs, and determining what action to take, when. When teams work across thousands of documents, agencies, standards, and jurisdictions, making those connections manually is extremely difficult.

OpenPolicy addresses this challenge by starting with the agency and mission itself. Its platform maps policy and regulatory developments to each agency's mission, mandate, programs, operational priorities, and modernization efforts, delivering continuously updated, decision-ready intelligence - tailored to the mission needs. Now operating within a FedRAMP Class C environment, OpenPolicy is the first policy platform able to ingest agency documents to build comprehensive mission context and integrate directly with government workflows and data. With the market intelligence integration OpenPolicy can further assess impacted businesses sectors, anticipate future needs and identify relevant mission partners. 

OpenPolicy's certification gives federal teams the ability to:

• Surface what matters: Centralize and prioritize policy, regulatory, standards, funding, and cross-agency developments based on the agency's mission and priorities with global and local coverage.
• Understand the impact: Access SI-powered, citation-backed research and analysis showing how policy developments affect programs, modernization initiatives, compliance obligations, and strategic priorities.
• Anticipate what's next: Identify emerging requirements earlier and understand potential implications for acquisition, funding, standards, agency projects and businesses.
• Leverage Market and Ecosystem Intelligence: OpenPolicy enriches its policy intelligence with data on organizations, technologies, suppliers, ownership structures, and business relationships, providing agencies with greater visibility into the future requirements, market and business ecosystems relevant to their mission, and the impact of policy on them.
• Turn intelligence into action: Translate relevant developments into informed decisions and processes across leadership, procurement, legal, compliance, security, and program teams.

"Modern government requires more than access to policy and market information – it requires the ability to understand what matters to your mission and act on it, and get ahead of emerging requirements" said Dr. Amit Elazari, Co-Founder and CEO of OpenPolicy. "OpenPolicy starts with the agency's mission, programs, impacted priorities and stakeholders, then connects them to the policy landscape to deliver decision-ready intelligence. With our market intelligence partners, we allow federal agencies to get ahead of requirements and policy barriers, and better understand the market. Achieving FedRAMP Class C Certification is an important milestone in bringing these capabilities securely to federal agencies, helping teams anticipate change, align earlier, and act with confidence."

Knox eliminated the FedRAMP Certification bottleneck for OpenPolicy, significantly reducing compliance timelines and costs. Through Knox's FedRAMP-certified managed cloud environment, inherited security controls, and ongoing compliance support, OpenPolicy was able to build on an established foundation while staying focused on its platform and customers.

This certification expands OpenPolicy and Knox's existing partnership. Early this year, Knox joined the OpenPolicy ecosystem, a coalition of forward-thinking companies including Wiz (now part of Google), Kiteworks, Armis from ServiceNow, and others working to drive innovative cybersecurity, AI and government acquisition policies. Additionally, in October Knox announced that customers can now use OpenPolicy to build government relations programs and help win contracts once they've deployed.

"Federal teams are being asked to keep pace with policy, regulatory, and standards changes as well as markets and entities, and apply those policies in the context of their respective mission needs," said Irina Denisenko, CEO of Knox Systems. "With its FedRAMP Class C Certification, OpenPolicy gives agencies a secure way to cut through that complexity, see what matters to their mission sooner, and turn policy intelligence into informed, strategic action."
