Security & Privacy#

VA Explorer uses open-source third-party libraries from well-known and/or reputable sources. The MITRE Corporation does not vet the security of those software libraries. If security concerns you, you or your organization may want to review the third-party libraries and their source code on GitHub.

Attribution#

This project relies on contributions from the community, in addition to other existing VA open-source libraries, without which VA Explorer would not be possible. Portions of this code, therefore, are copyright the respective developers, which include, but may not be limited to, teams from the CDC Foundation (e.g., DHIS-2 export) and The Ohio State University (e.g., InterVA5, pyCrossVA, openVA pipeline).
