# Secure environments.
Your infrastructure.

Government teams use Coder to deploy air-gapped, self-hosted environments that protect source code and increase productivity.

## Securing classified source code and data is non-negotiable.

Coder delivers self-hosted development environments on your infrastructure—centralizing source code and speeding up developer and data scientist onboarding.

### Secure source code

Eliminate the risks of local development. Keep code and data inside your infrastructure, whether on any major cloud or in a fully air-gapped environment.

### Accelerate onboarding

Drastically reduce onboarding time with automated provisioning and prebuilt environments—no local configuration needed.

### Standardize environments

Integrate with the IDEs, tools, languages, and operating systems your engineers already know and use.

## Why government institutions adopt Coder

With Coder, developers spend less time troubleshooting and more time coding, and infrastructure teams can standardize the environments and remove the security and governance risks of local environments.

### Productivity gains in secure environments

With automated environment provisioning, onboard developers to new environments in minutes instead of the days or weeks even on government-furnished equipment without modification.

### Operational efficiency through standardization

Standardize and manage development environments using [Terraform templates](https://coder.com/docs/admin/templates), ensuring every environment is consistent, reproducible, and secure by default. For multi-organization deployments, Coder helps isolate operations per organization providing flexibility to support contractors, separate teams or classified projects.

### Comprehensive security and compliance

Coder is a [self-hosted and open-source architecture](https://coder.com/blog/coder-well-architected-framework) ensuring that all data, source code, and development environments remain within an organization’s controlled infrastructure and never need to be stored on a developer’s local laptop reducing attack surface and simplifying accreditation processes for the US and EU regions.
