Rise8

Is your software falling behind? In today’s fast-paced tech world, outdated processes won't cut it. As Rise8 Founder and CEO Bryon Kroger notes, “our ability to conduct future warfare will be about how quickly we can respond to the enemy with new software.” Rapid software updates can seem daunting for those used to conventional development, where it takes years to gather requirements, code, and test before software is eligible for an Authority to Operate (ATO). But you don’t have to sacrifice stability and security for speed. Learn how Rise8 accelerates software production while mitigating risks and ensuring secure, reliable delivery without the delays of outdated processes: https://lnkd.in/emsZenhz #cATO #DevOps #GovTech #NationalDefense?
