One Platform for Compliance and Operations. No More Tool Sprawl.
Stratus GRC-ITSM
For organizations running compliance programs across FedRAMP, CMMC, or DoD CC SRG that are tired of stitching together five or more disconnected tools to manage GRC and IT operations.
Get a Demo
Running a compliant environment requires more than a GRC tool. You need ticketing, vulnerability tracking, change management, document generation, reporting, and operational workflows. Most organizations cobble this together across five or more disconnected tools from different vendors.
Stratus GRC-ITSM consolidates compliance and operations into a single platform built on HaloITSM. Everything runs in one place, with one data model and one source of truth, so compliance is a byproduct of operations, not a separate workstream.

Capabilities
Security and Compliance Operations
- Vulnerability Management. Ingests normalized and enriched vulnerability data from all scan tools. Findings are automatically enriched with CISA KEV status, EPSS scores, and threat intelligence feeds to determine exploitability. Combined with live asset inventory and environmental context to assess Potential Adverse Impact. Every finding becomes a tracked issue ticket with SLAs aligned to severity.
- Issue & Risk Tracking. All findings, vulnerabilities, and risks are tracked as issue tickets with full lifecycle management: creation, triage, remediation, verification, and closure. SLA enforcement ensures nothing ages out silently. This is your risk register: live, auditable, and tied directly to the controls and assets it affects.
- POA&M Management. Full lifecycle tracking from finding to closure with milestones, status updates, and audit trails. Deviations (operational requirements, false positives, risk adjustments) are linked directly to their parent POA&Ms, and reporting that ties the two together is generated automatically, not maintained by hand.
- Vulnerability Deviation Management. Full lifecycle tracking of operational requirements, false positives, and risk adjustments. Each deviation is documented with justification and expiration, and linked to its parent issue/POA&M. When a deviation is approved, the downstream reporting updates automatically with no manual reconciliation between your deviation tracker and your POA&M report.
- Asset Inventory. Live, automatically synced inventory of all cloud resources within the authorization boundary. Integrations pull inventory directly from your cloud environment so your asset register stays current without manual updates.
- Reporting. Generate ConMon monthly packages, POA&M exports in FedRAMP-required formats, and ongoing authorization reports. Reports are live views of platform data, current and historical, not static exports that go stale. Accessible through the self-service portal with granular RBAC.
- OSCAL-Based System Definition. Define your system using OSCAL layers: Components, Capabilities, Implemented Requirements, and System Information. Your compliance data is structured and machine-readable from day one, not trapped in Word documents. Use it to auto-generate SSPs, policies, and authorization artifacts directly from the platform.
ITSM Modules
- Change Management. Structured change request workflows with automated approval processes, role-based notifications, and Change Advisory Board routing. Approval and notification roles are defined by change type and need-to-know. Full SLA tracking on every change request.
- Incident Management. All incidents tracked as tickets with defined POCs who are automatically notified. Escalation paths, response plan integration, and post-incident review workflows built in. Supports tabletop exercises and after-action tracking.
- User Access Requests. Self-service access provisioning with approval workflows, role-based routing, and integration with access review cycles.
- Self-Service Portal. End users and stakeholders access the platform through a portal with granular RBAC. Submit requests, view authorization data, check ticket status, and pull reports, all with secure authentication and access logging.
Reporting & Analytics
- Executive Dashboards. Real-time compliance posture, risk trends, SLA performance, and operational metrics at a glance.
- Ongoing Authorization Reports. Live and historical views of all compliance data, available through the self-service portal. Human and machine-readable formats.
- Audit-Ready Exports. Pre-formatted deliverables for FedRAMP monthly reporting, 3PAO assessments, and agency reviews.
- Operational Metrics. SLA tracking, ticket aging, resolution times, and workload distribution across teams.
Compliance Framework Support
Stratus GRC-ITSM has built-in support for the compliance frameworks that matter to government and defense organizations.
Framework
What's Built In
FedRAMP Rev5
Recurring task schedules mapped to controls at Low, Moderate, and High baselines. Automated ConMon deliverables and reporting cadences. OSCAL-based system definition for machine-readable authorization packages. Full support for Rev5 Balance improvements (see below).
FedRAMP 20x
Full KSI tracking: each Key Security Indicator tracked as a ticket with SLAs, automated and manual validation submissions, pass/fail criteria, and implementation summaries stored as Components and Implemented Requirements. KSI validation failures automatically create issue tickets. Stratus is a FedRAMP 20x Moderate pilot participant.
CMMC Level 1–3
The same GRC-ITSM capabilities applied to CMMC requirements. Since all operations run through the platform, evidence of compliance is available as a byproduct of daily work, not a separate collection effort.
DoD CC SRG
Support for DoD Cloud Computing SRG Impact Levels IL2 through IL5. The same platform capabilities apply across all impact levels, with controls and reporting aligned to the applicable baseline.
Not a checkbox exercise: these frameworks are embedded into the platform’s task engine, reporting, and workflow automation so compliance activities happen as part of daily operations, not as a separate workstream.
Ready for FedRAMP Rev5 Balance Improvements and 20x
FedRAMP is modernizing Rev5 by integrating improvements from the 20x program, known as Rev5 Balance releases. Most providers will need to rebuild processes and adopt new tooling to comply. Stratus GRC-ITSM already supports these capabilities because we built them for the 20x pilot.
Balance Improvement
Status
How GRC-ITSM Supports It
FedRAMP Security Inbox
Mandatory (Jan 2026)
Emails from FedRAMP and agency domains automatically create tickets with SLA tracking and POC notification.
Minimum Assessment Scope
Wide Release (Jan 2026)
OSCAL-based system definition lets you narrowly define information resource boundaries with documented components, information flows, and third-party dependencies, exactly what MAS requires. Transition from traditional boundaries without rebuilding your documentation.
Significant Change Notifications
Wide Release (Feb 2026)
Change Management workflows already categorize changes by impact, track approvals, and generate notifications with required data (change type, timeline, business impact, approver details). Auditable change records maintained for 12+ months. Human and machine-readable notification formats supported.
Authorization Data Sharing
Open Beta
Self-service portal with just-in-time access to authorization data in human and machine-readable formats. Granular RBAC, secure authentication, and full access audit logging. No manual approval cycles.
Vulnerability Detection and Response
Open Beta
Full VDR pipeline: enrichment with CISA KEV and EPSS, evaluation for exploitability and internet-reachability, Potential Adverse Impact rating (N1–N5), and SLA-driven remediation that exceeds FedRAMP’s recommended timeframes. 192-day accepted vulnerability tracking and monthly reporting in required formats.
Collaborative Continuous Monitoring
Open Beta
Ongoing Authorization Reports generated from live platform data: quarterly OARs, vulnerability summaries, change
These aren’t future integrations; they’re capabilities we use today in the FedRAMP 20x Moderate pilot.
Workflow Automation
Compliance programs fail when recurring tasks slip through the cracks. Stratus GRC-ITSM automates the operational cadence of compliance.
What Gets Automated:
Weekly
Audit log review and analysis tasks created and assigned automatically
Monthly
Vulnerability scan reviews, POA&M updates, privileged account compliance checks, ConMon reporting packages
Quarterly
Public content reviews, developer privilege reviews, access recertification triggers
Annually
Policy review cycles across all 17+ control families, contingency plan testing, incident response exercises, security awareness training tracking, 3PAO assessment coordination
Each task is pre-mapped to its governing controls, pre-assigned to responsible roles, and tracked against its compliance deadline. Missed deadlines escalate automatically.
For FedRAMP 20x: KSI validations run on their required cadence: automated validations daily, manual validations at least quarterly. When a machine-based validation fails, an issue ticket is created automatically with the appropriate SLAs.
AI-Ready Platform
Stratus GRC-ITSM is designed for AI integration through MCP (Model Context Protocol), enabling contextualized, natural-language access to your compliance and operations data. Ask questions, surface risks, and generate insights directly from live platform data.
