Case Study: US Navy achieves ATO in days with Anchore

US Navy achieves ATO in 3-5 days with Anchore

The US Navy's PEO Digital faced significant challenges in achieving and maintaining Authority to Operate (ATO) compliance for its DevSecOps platform, Black Pearl, and the applications built upon it. Managing open-source software risks and vulnerability overload for developers while meeting stringent RMF security requirements was a time-intensive process. To address this, they partnered with the vendor Anchore to implement its security and compliance automation platform.

Anchore provided automated ATO compliance, continuous monitoring for open-source risks, and prioritized vulnerability reporting. This solution integrated directly into the development process, enabling the US Navy to deploy a ready-to-be-assessed platform in just 3-5 days instead of potentially six months. Anchore’s tools significantly reduced time spent on compliance reporting, provided proactive risk management, and accelerated the delivery of secure software to the warfighter.
