Veteran-owned · SDVOSB certification in process

Continuous ATO.
Automated.

MkrOps builds AI-driven DevSecOps for federal and defense missions — compressing accreditation and security operations from months of paperwork to a continuous, automated pipeline.

01 — what we are

A defense-native DevSecOps company, run by an operator.

MkrOps, Inc. is a veteran-owned small business (SBA SDVOSB certification in process) pairing multi-agent AI with hands-on cyber accreditation experience — built to remove the compliance drag that slows every program.

Engine 01 — R&D Non-dilutive SBIR / AFWERX research: AI for continuous ATO, RMF automation, and cyber.
Engine 02 — Services DevSecOps, SecOps, and software-factory pipelines for agencies — SDVOSB set-aside delivery once SBA-certified.

One capability. Two paths to the mission.

02 — what we do

Security that begins at the physical layer and propagates up.

[01]

Continuous ATO & RMF automation

Multi-agent automation of ATO evidence, control mapping, and continuous monitoring — eMASS, NIST 800-53, ICD-503 workflows.

[02]

SecOps & SOC automation

Detection engineering, SOAR-style orchestration, and vulnerability management across multi-network enterprises.

[03]

DevSecOps & GitOps pipelines

Secure software-factory CI/CD, policy-as-code, and supply-chain & pipeline hardening.

[04]

AI workloads-as-a-service

Multi-agent orchestration and AI services for Kubernetes environments — compliance, monitoring, and analyst augmentation.

[05]

Cloud & infrastructure security

Secure network engineering, endpoint protection, and segmented architectures — the physical-first model.

[06]

Clearance-capable

TS/SCI previously held (reinstatement via sponsored reinvestigation) — a pathway to classified work as the company matures.

03 — who we are

Founded and led by a veteran who has done the work.

20+ years securing DoD and USAF systems from the physical layer up — avionics and RF, then RMF / ICD-503 accreditation, SOC automation, and now multi-agent AI. The credibility behind the capability.
