Case Study: Dow Jones achieves faster, more secure software delivery with GitHub Enterprise

Dow Jones delivers the day’s headlines with a secure and news-ready platform developers and readers can rely on: GitHub Enterprise

Dow Jones needed a secure, highly reliable software development platform to help its developers and journalists deliver breaking news faster across a global operation. The company adopted GitHub Enterprise to support its DevOps transformation, improve collaboration, and keep pace with a worldwide readership while maintaining strong security and compliance controls.

GitHub helped Dow Jones automate CI/CD workflows, centralize governance, and strengthen security with tools like GitHub Actions, GitHub Apps, repo secrets, and built-in security alerts. The result was faster, safer delivery of products and code, less manual work, and even notable efficiency gains such as replacing three servers with a single GitHub Action. Dow Jones also expanded its open source and innersourcing efforts with GitHub, helping teams write better code and attract new talent.
