Currently, FDS and Smokeview make use of GitHub, a free service to support software development for open source applications. GitHub uses Git version control software. Under this system a centralized repository containing all project files resides on an external server. A record of version number when a specific file was last changed is maintained. As an open source program, any individual can obtain a copy of the repository or retrieve specific versions of the repository.

Both FDS and Smokeview live within a GitHub \emph{organization} called ``Fire Models''. The current location of the organization is available through the \emph{View on Github} button at \href{https://pages.nist.gov/fds-smv} {\ct{https://pages.nist.gov/fds-smv}}. The repositories that are used by the FDS and Smokeview projects contain more than 6000 configuration items and are listed below along with a brief description:

\section{Securing the FDS/Smokeview Installation Files}

FDS and Smokeview installation files are built on NIST managed computers with access limited to only those associated with the FDS/Smokeview project. Each bundle file and the bundle itself is scanned for viruses and malware. The bundle is not made available if the scan identifies a suspicious signature. A SHA256 hash code is also generated for each bundle file so that one may verify that files have not been altered. A list of these hash codes and the status of the virus scan is stored in a separate file with the suffix \ct{_manifest.html} and made available along with the bundle.
