Defense Case Study

Secure Software: More Than a Link in the Chain

The Department of War (DoW) recently introduced the Software Fast Track (SWFT) Initiative, which is intended to reform the way the DoW acquires, tests, and authorizes secure software. In line with SWFT, DevSHIELD is GDIT’s solution for efficiently building secure software from the ground up and for helping agencies access the solutions they need when they need them.
