Yea, I keep thinking of doing this but there's so much red tape in starting a defense company, it's seriously daunting. I'm a software developer in the defense industry, btw.

Actually, I think the time may finally be right for something like this in my industry.

Take more normal stuff that exists and host it in FedRAMP and DOD IL4+ environments. I work for a DOD contractor and we can only use a few SaaS solutions, most are not secure enough. We have to host most stuff in-house and it's becoming harder to find software that we can either host in-house or is of a security level approved by the gov.

We specialize in helping organizations seeking FedRAMP accreditation. https://stackarmor.com/solutions-2/devops/ Please reach out if interested.
