GitHub is the developer company. We make it easier for developers to be developers: to work together, to solve challenging problems, and to create the world’s most important technologies. We foster a collaborative community that can come together—as individuals and in teams—to create the future of software and make a difference in the world.

The GitHub platform is where developers can create, share, and ship the best code possible. Our community is made up of students, hobbyists, consultants, enterprise professionals, partners and executives, building software in the way that works best for them.

GitHub is much more than code. It is the home of open source collaboration. It is where new developers get started and where experienced developers expand their knowledge. It is a community where developers come together to solve the unsolvable and test the limits of what software can do.

Accellion, Inc. enables enterprise organizations to securely connect all their content to the people and systems that are part of their critical business processes, regardless of the applications that create that content or where it is stored, while maintaining the controls and visibility needed to demonstrate compliance.

Accellion’s secure file sharing platform, kiteworks, provides CISOs full control of their content to mitigate the risk of a data breach, ransomware attack or other form of data loss. Deployment flexibility (on-prem, IaaS, FedRAMP, hosted, hybrid cloud), encryption (AES 256, FIPS and key ownership), integration with existing security infrastructure (LDAP, SSO, etc.) and AV/DLP scanning on file uploads and downloads provide the highest levels of protection to ensure only authorized users can access, share and receive your most sensitive content.

Engineering experiences that amaze. We create technology with a purpose: to make life better for everyone, everywhere. Keep Reinventing.
