In the Resident Evil film franchise, what is the name of the corporation responsible for the T-virus?

Umbrella Corporation is the corporation responsible for the T-virus in the Resident Evil film franchise.

Umbrella is a powerful biotechnology and pharmaceutical company whose research produces the T-virus. The virus can reanimate dead tissue and create zombies and other biological weapons, making the corporation a central source of danger throughout the series.

The film series is based on Capcom's Resident Evil video games, where Umbrella also plays a major role. The movies center on Alice, a character created for the film series and played by Milla Jovovich, while incorporating locations, creatures, and ideas from the games.
