Automation Enables Cybersecurity Compliance Amid Budget and Staff Uncertainty

In times of uncertainty, automation solutions can help organizations reduce attack surfaces, improve processes, and do more with less to maximize efficiency.

Shrinking budgets, shrinking staff, and a need to get capabilities into the hands of the warfighter faster—everything points to automation. With hiring freezes and SME shortages, automation isn’t just beneficial, it’s essential.

In the DoD, SteelCloud’s ConfigOS is used to speed authority to operate (ATO) for software and hardware headed to our front lines. It reduces STIG compliance effort by 90% and reduces costs by 70%. So, while our military speeds up the acquisition process, SteelCloud’s STIG automation software helps the DoD to speed up the ATO process that puts the newly acquired capabilities in the hands of our warfighters.

Simply stated, proper automation increases support to the warfighter while reducing cost and effort.
