By tapping into the collective talent and innovation of open source communities, we believe we can helps fuel much of the technology we use today, from open source platforms like Linux and Cloud’s open platforms to open source browsers like Firefox and Chromium.
The open community-to-enterprise development model often results in more secure software.
.. when everyone can access the code, threats can be discovered and patched more quickly.
As an added level of security, Softreck tests, hardens, and supports open source software so each customer has the same level of assurance.
Softreck employees are productive and creative individuals. Softreck has a responsibility to safeguard our corporate interests, but we also value and respect the personal initiative of our employees. We hired you because we believe in you, your skills, and your value and we recognize you will have many opportunities to do and create cool things outside of your employment here. We support your independent efforts to build, and create, and contribute and we want to provide clear communication and guidelines about how to do so properly. e want to make sure that we set common expectations so that we are never in an adversarial position relative to our employees. The legal terms below flow from these objectives.

Through our unique development model, we start with community-created open source software and build upon each project to harden security, fix bugs, patch vulnerabilities, and add new features.
An open development model connects Softreck engineers to open source communities. As members work together to identify and elevate the best ideas, we support them by contributing to the code and creating products from upstream projects.

we’ve worked for more than 3 years to invest in open projects and technologies, protect and defend open source intellectual property, and recruit developers who actively participate in open projects across the IT stack.
This experience helps inform our development model to produce more stable and secure community.
