We have broken the entire software development lifecycle into four or five stages, using specialised agents to drive automation and productivity across both legacy systems and traditional banking or insurance tech challenges. That base layer is where Tria comes in.”
Preparing for the quantum horizon Beyond generative AI, Mphasis is proactively preparing its clients for the computational advantages – and security implications – of quantum computing.

businesses and complex areas around risk computations.“ We do have a quantum lab, which we have set up in conjunction with the University of Calgary. So there’ s a significant amount of R & D that we do and we are proactively keeping an eye on what the art of the possible is and then also helping organisations in their journey of not just adopting quantum, but also helping them understand what the risks are from an adoption of quantum standpoint.”
