GitHub Enterprise for Federal
The world's most popular development platform, configured for environments where security clearances, compliance frameworks, and air-gapped networks are the norm.
Why GitHub Enterprise?
GitHub has become the default for modern software development. Your developers already know it. Your security teams can leverage its native capabilities. And GitHub Enterprise—whether Server or Cloud—provides the control and compliance features that federal environments require.
But deploying GitHub Enterprise in regulated environments isn't the same as spinning up a SaaS account. You need proper architecture, security hardening, integration with existing identity systems, and workflows that satisfy both developers and auditors.
Deployment Options
GitHub Enterprise Server
Self-hosted deployment for maximum control. Deploy on-premises, in your private cloud, or in air-gapped environments. Full data sovereignty with no external dependencies. Ideal for IL4/IL5 environments and classified networks.
GitHub Enterprise Cloud
GitHub-managed infrastructure with enterprise controls. Data residency options, SAML SSO, audit log streaming, and IP allow lists. FedRAMP High authorization for agencies that can use cloud services.
Hybrid Deployments
Connect GitHub Enterprise Server to GitHub Enterprise Cloud for organizations that need both. Keep sensitive work on-premises while leveraging cloud features for unclassified projects.
