Open Source Technology Improvement Fund
The Open Source Technology Improvement Fund is a corporate non-profit dedicated to securing open source apps that we all depend on. Securing software isn’t easy, and we know what it takes to succeed.

Support the OSTIF Mission
Open-source projects keep today’s Internet infrastructure afloat. They are critical for the operation of every webserver, every browser, and every banking platform. And they are cared for by a surprisingly small group of people with a limited amount of time. Without dedicated security experts, these projects often don’t get the attention they require.
We can do it with help from supporters like you.
