We are thrilled to announce that our Class for Microsoft Teams platform has achieved the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP) certification. This milestone underscores our unwavering commitment to security, compliance, and trust.

What is TX-RAMP?

The Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP) is a rigorous certification process established by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR). It ensures that cloud-based services used by Texas state agencies meet the highest standards of security and risk management. Achieving TX-RAMP certification means our platform has undergone extensive evaluation and adheres to stringent security controls and protocols.

Our commitment to security and compliance

From day one, the mission of Class has been to provide educational technology solutions that prioritize the safety and privacy of our users. Combined with our existing SOC 2, Type II certification, FedRAMP certification and our ongoing commitment to the GDPR, CCPA, and the EU AI Act, the TX-RAMP certification is yet another testament to our dedication to these principles. Our team has worked diligently to implement robust security measures that protect sensitive data and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

Below we discuss a few key aspects of our security and compliance framework.

Data privacy impact assessments

We conduct regular assessments to identify and mitigate any potential risks to data privacy. This proactive approach allows us to stay ahead of potential threats and safeguard user information.

Compliance with global standards

In addition to TX-RAMP, we align our practices with international standards such as GDPR and CCPA, among others. This ensures that our platform meets the highest benchmarks for data protection and privacy.

AI governance

As part of our commitment to responsible AI usage, we have integrated AI governance into our operations. This ensures that our AI tools are used ethically and transparently, further enhancing user trust.

Building trust with our users

Achieving TX-RAMP certification is not just about meeting regulatory requirements; it's about building and maintaining trust with our users. We understand that instructors, educators, students, and administrators rely on our platform for their teaching and learning activities, and we take this responsibility seriously. Our ongoing commitment to security, compliance, and transparency is at the core of everything we do.

As we celebrate this achievement, we want to extend our gratitude to our dedicated security team and our users who have placed their trust in us. We will continue to innovate and enhance our platform, ensuring it remains a secure, reliable, and trusted tool for the synchronous online teaching and learning community.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to advance our mission of delivering exceptional, secure, and compliant educational technology solutions.
