- Second Front Systems is working to accelerate the transition and adoption of emerging technology into the national security ecosystem, including the Department of Defense

Our take
It goes without saying that national security is of extremely high importance and billions of relevant currencies are fuelled into achieving the highest standards each year. Second Front Systems fast-tracks government access to disruptive, commercially-proven, SaaS applications for national security missions.
Founded in 2014 by two former U.S. Marines, they used experience of outdated technology and systems to power the company's national security mission. Since its founding, Second Front has developed a DevSecOps platform and several AWS GovCloud solutions.
2023-24 funding rounds mean the company can now look to expand into the UK market and position its DevSecOps platform Game Warden as a software bridge between the two nations. The current operations and software used by the two countries are not matched and this ironing out could be transformational for the progress of joint security. The company is described as a market leader and it’s clear it is making huge progress in sectors of great importance.
