About ActiveState
We are ActiveState, and we're passionate about empowering developers and enterprises to harness the power of open source languages securely and efficiently. For over two decades, we've been at the forefront of providing enterprise-grade programming language distributions, backed by robust commercial support, comprehensive security and license reviews, and indemnification. Our journey began in 1997 with a vision to simplify the complexities of open source for businesses, and today, we continue to innovate, helping organizations navigate the ever-evolving landscape of software development.
Our core mission is to enable DevOps, InfoSec, and Development teams to enhance their security posture while simultaneously boosting productivity and fostering innovation. We understand that unmanaged open source can expose organizations to significant software supply chain threats. That's why we've developed the ActiveState Platform, the only NIST SSDF compliant 'paved road' for DevSecOps teams. This platform offers universal observability into open source usage across an organization, intelligent vulnerability remediation capabilities, and a collaborative environment for frictionless DevSecOps. We strive to free organizations to create, maintain, and share software without limitations by delivering open source management at scale. We're obsessed with our customers' success and are committed to providing an integrated, end-to-end platform coupled with a dedicated team to help businesses achieve their goals with speed and confidence.
We believe in embracing new thinking, constantly questioning the status quo, and seeking out new ideas to achieve our ambitions. Taking ownership is a core value; we act on behalf of our company, our customers, and the bigger picture, ensuring tasks are done and done well. We encourage open communication, recognizing that every voice and idea contributes to our collective success. Our commitment extends to empowering others – our team, our community, and our customers – by maintaining high standards, offering ongoing support, and delivering continuous feedback. With a global reach, serving 97% of the Fortune 1000 and over two million developers, we are dedicated to making open source software easy and safe for enterprises worldwide.
