Open source

"unlike traditional proprietary software, users can access the source code, making it possible for them to tailor the software to their needs"
This is only one of the strengths of OSS, making it a viable and
more attractive package than proprietary software. It can be customized to a particular company or government agency and still be compatible with other factions. Plus it is more stable and secure.
