Department of Defense and military installations need to quickly acquire specialized cybersecurity and IT technical staff to support critical operations, but traditional government hiring processes are slow and inflexible. Agencies are forced to pay premium consulting rates ($26M+ contracts) to staffing firms because they cannot hire full-time employees fast enough or lack access to specialized talent pools with required security clearances and domain expertise.
