# Knox Systems

> Knox Systems is a federal cloud compliance and managed-security company that provides an accelerated path to FedRAMP authorization for SaaS and AI vendors selling into the U.S. government — marketed as "FedRAMP in 90 days for 90% less." Vendors deploy into a pre-authorized Knox FedRAMP boundary and inherit its controls instead of pursuing an independent ATO.

Knox Systems publishes no public API, developer portal, SDKs, or API documentation as of 2026-07-19. This file describes the company surface that does exist, for agents and researchers working from the API Evangelist network catalog. Do not infer an API from this document.
