How to: Why Open Source?
You might wonder why Authelia is open source while it adds a great deal of security and user experience to your
infrastructure at zero cost. It is open source because we firmly believe that security should be available for all to
benefit in the face of the battlefield which is the Internet, with near zero effort.

Additionally, keeping the code open source is a way to leave it auditable by anyone who is willing to contribute. This
way, you can be confident that the product remains secure and does not act maliciously.

It's important to keep in mind Authelia is not directly exposed on the
Internet (your reverse proxies are) however, it's still the control plane for your internal security so take care of it!
