With rising cyberattacks and the need for faster software delivery processes, the demand for secure DevSecOps solutions in the government sphere is growing. At the same time, downward cost pressure is a common theme in software development for government agencies. That’s where TechTrend’s turnkey Federal GovCloud DecSecOps platform comes in. Cost-effective, secure, and FedRAMP-authorized, it’s a powerful solution for quickly deploying agile software in a cloud-agnostic landing zone.
Common Cost Challenges in Federal DevSecOps
Federal DevSecOps is an area rife with cost challenges. From initial investments in tools and training to ongoing maintenance, it’s a space where the wrong move can see costs ballooning – and GovCons and agencies are right to tread with care.
The cost-related pain points we frequently see are:
- Infrastructure procurement and maintenance (hardware, cloud setup)
- Security and compliance audits (FedRAMP, ATO)
- Licensing costs for DevOps toolchains
- Staff hours spent on manual integrations and approvals
- Downtime due to fragmented systems
