The Pentagon’s startup-centric office, named the Defense Innovation Unit Experimental (DIUx), is currently overseeing the venture. The two-year contract is part of a program dubbed “Voltron,” which will offer the technology to a variety of different defense agencies in an effort to find coding flaws in both operating systems and custom programs used by the U.S. military.
