This case of success addresses the execution of a project to adapt the proprietary system of SPC Brazil to the General Data Protection Law (LGPD) and other information security requirements, carried out by Homine's Software Services cell, based on an agile development methodology and shared management with a focus on results.

How does this story begin?

SPC Brasil had proprietary software that needed constant improvement. Due to the high volume of work, the IT area needed help to make these improvements.
