Development Without Limits: Guardian Digital & the Advantages of its Open Development Approach to Business Email Security

Open Source- a development model that was once overlooked and belittled-  is now accepted and respected worldwide for the key benefits it offers businesses and consumers.  IBM is embracing it. They are basing their future on it. The City of Los Angeles is using open source to resolve infrastructure and transportation issues. Other companies that are known to use Open Source in their businesses include Amazon, Ticketmaster and Google.  This transparent, community-powered development model has the potential to benefit businesses and consumers across all industries, giving rise to some of the most effective and secure software, products and solutions on the market. 

Guardian Digital recognizes this. And for the past 20 years we have embraced Open Source to create and provide customers threat-ready, secure business email protection for businesses of every size.

A Winning Philosophy

Open development is based upon the principles of accessibility, community involvement and support- where code is freely available for review and use. This approach fosters passionate participation and rapid innovation. The result is software and technology that is fast, highly secure, intuitive and resilient.  In this environment, products and programs based on open development are often superior to proprietary alternatives. 

Well-designed, openly developed technology provides:

  • Rapid fixes and fewer vulnerabilities 
  • Tighter security. Code is more thoroughly reviewed and vetted by the community and thus more impenetrable
  • Increased reliability with a worldwide community supporting a code base rather than one team within one company
  • Eliminated risk of vendor lock-in
  • Cost-effective, adaptable implementation for businesses of all sizes
  • Adherence to community values, ethics.  It’s developed by the same people who use it themselves
