I don't run a company myself but I would think that the enterprise offering would have some security assurances. Does Github say that its services aren't appropriate for purposes other than open-source development?
By security, though, I wouldn't expect the guarantees of financial data or whatever, but internal audit and access controls, i.e. not the scenario of "any engineer at Github" that the GP has inferred. IIRC, for example, at Google only specific engineers, such as SREs, are given uber-access to user data as part of their duties: https://techcrunch.com/2010/09/14/google-engineer-spying-fir...
