Defense Startup Tech Protection Academy

Derivation Chain

Step 1 Government policy to nurture 100 defense Startups

→

Step 2 Strengthened tech protection and export control regulations in the defense sector

→

Step 3 E-learning for tech protection targeting new defense-sector Startups

Problem

IT Startups newly entering the defense sector must quickly understand complex regulations including the Defense Technology Protection Act, Foreign Trade Act (strategic materials export controls), and Defense Industry Security Operations Guidelines. However, existing training is limited to offline group sessions targeting large corporations and research institutes (2-3 day courses costing hundreds of dollars). With no online training available for Startup teams of 5-10 people to learn individually during work hours, many companies launch operations while carrying regulatory violation risks.

Solution

Breaks down core defense tech protection regulations into 10-15 minute micro-learning modules. Recommends customized learning paths by Startup scenario (software delivery, technology cooperation, overseas export) and verifies comprehension through quizzes and case simulations after each module. Issues completion certificates usable as training compliance evidence during security audits.

Target: CEOs and security officers at IT/SW Startups (5-20 employees) preparing to enter the defense sector, new employees at defense subcontractors

Revenue Model: Enterprise license at $440/year per company (up to 20 employees), individual certification course at $74/person. Structured to accept government voucher payments (Defense Acquisition Program Administration support programs).
