Intro

NetBird is a small team from Berlin, Germany that develops an open-source network security platform.

Network security is utterly complex and expensive, accessible only to companies with multi-million dollar IT budgets. In contrast, there are millions of companies left behind.

Our mission is to create an advanced network and cybersecurity platform that is both easy-to-use and affordable for teams of all sizes and budgets.

By leveraging the open-source strategy and technological advancements, NetBird aims to set the industry standard for connecting and securing IT infrastructure.
