The record of federal cyber governance, checked every day

FedXchange keeps every binding rule a federal security program follows, from the Privacy Act of 1974 to this morning's watch, and says what changed and why it matters in plain English. With a free account, it writes the policies that name the tools your agency actually runs.

DHS orders civilian agencies to remove Acronis and DeepSeek. The orders are dated July.

· Federal governance

Two new Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act (FASCSA) orders make every civilian agency find and remove Acronis and DeepSeek products. Both are dated nearly three months before the public saw them, so some of their deadlines may already have passed.

What the watch checks, and how often

Then put the record to work: policies that name what your agency actually runs

Most policy templates say “the organization employs an automated tool.” Staff can't follow that, and assessors ask which tool you mean. FedXchange reads your agency's FedRAMP Marketplace authorizations, suggests a service for each of 18 security functions, and writes 92 plain-language policies, procedures, and plans that name the services and titles you confirm.

Works todayFree account

  1. Step 1: Name your agency

    FedXchange finds the cloud products your agency has authorized on the FedRAMP Marketplace and suggests one for each security function, such as identity management or vulnerability scanning.

    How we pick each suggested service

  2. Step 2: Confirm your choices

    Confirm a service for each of 18 functions, including services the government runs, and set your own titles for 50 offices and roles.

    See the functions

  3. Step 3: Get your documents

    FedXchange writes 92 policies, procedures, and plans that name what you confirmed. Download each one as a Word file.

    How the documents are made

  4. Step 4: Stay current

    The governance watch checks federal sources every day and tells you which of your documents a change touches.

Incident Response Plan, section 4

Example

The Security Operations Center watches alerts from your log management service around the clock.

When an alert may be an incident, the analyst opens a ticket in your ticketing service and tells the Information System Security Officer within one hour.

The highlighted words come from your answers: the services you confirmed and the titles your agency uses.

  • Your names, not placeholders. Where a template says “the organization employs an automated tool,” yours names the service you confirmed and the office that runs it.
  • Every real option, side by side. For each function, FedXchange lists the FedRAMP Marketplace products that fit it (157 listings in all, as of October 29, 2026), your agency's own first, and the 9 services the government runs itself in 8 of the 18 functions, which never appear among your authorizations. See the functions and the shared services
  • Checked before you see them. Each document cites the federal sources it rests on and passes a fixed series of checks, from source currency to a review board of 16 reviewer roles. They are drafts: nothing is final until a person at your agency approves it.
  • Word files you can edit, written again when you change an answer. Each comes with your agency's cover and a filled table of contents. Pick a new service or retitle an office, and the next draft says so everywhere it matters.
  • No AI writes them. A fixed generator writes every document, so the same answers always give the same text. Your own AI assistant can connect over the Model Context Protocol to review suggestions and record choices; every change waits for your yes. How assistants connect
  • Coming nextDrafted updates: when a source changes, FedXchange proposes new wording for a person to approve.
