Case Study: U.S. DOE Laboratory speeds secure code delivery and cuts security review times with Sonatype Nexus

Simplifying Code Deployment at a DOE Laboratory

Sonatype helped a U.S. Department of Energy laboratory facing extreme delays in shipping code due to lengthy security approval cycles and the stringent quality demands of nuclear research. Developers often waited months for reviews, creating costly context switches and blocking delivery of critical features.

The lab’s Program Manager adopted the Sonatype Nexus platform to shift security left, automatically verify third‑party libraries, and prove continuous quality to evaluators. Reviews that had taken weeks or months dropped to hours, teams self‑configured Nexus integrations, DevSecOps practices spread organically, and the organization shipped higher‑quality, more secure code faster with happier developers.
