What is the Mid-Market DevSecOps Implementation course about?

Mid-market organizations face unique challenges: they’re too large for ad-hoc processes but lack the dedicated resources of enterprise teams. Security often lags behind delivery momentum, creating friction, rework, and exposure. With teams distributed across time zones and tools, aligning development, security, and operations becomes a coordination bottleneck rather than a strategic advantage.
