Nisshin Geppo
Information technology, especially security technology, continually progresses day by day.
When describing such a fact, we use the four-character idiom nisshin geppo (日進月歩).
ni/nichi (日) means "day," shin (進) means "progress," ge/getsu (月) means "month," and po/ho (歩) means "walk" or "stride."
It is thought that this idiom was made by composing jitsugetsu (日月 - "day and month") and shinpo (進歩 - "progress").
That is to say, 日進月歩 means that something continue to progress day by day/month by month.

To me, it means to be so efficient, you complete a month's worth of work in a day.

Thank you for the comment. :)
I think that this term is used to mean that something changes/progresses just rapidly rather than efficiently.
