Our hosting provider, Engine Yard, has a great PDF explaining data center security policy: http://www.engineyard.com/docs/EY_Security_WP.pdf > Ideally we'd host this kind of stuff internally, but as we all know > Trac + Git is rubbish, and there's nothing anywhere close to GitHub > for features and usability. Both GitHub and Engine Yard are very serious about security. It's something we worry about and constantly try to improve. We even have a security expert on retainer who has helped us out with issues in the past. I consider this one of the benefits of choosing GitHub over self hosting - is security as high a priority on your internal network? -- Chris Wanstrath http://github.com/defunkt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GitHub" group.
