Sober Enterprise · Quarterly Stable & Rolling

The hardened image, plus signed rule packs.

Enterprise is the Community engine plus two things Community does not ship: the hardened, non-root OCI container and curated, signed rule packs. EE is the Quarterly Stable track — one release per purchase, six months of CVE patches. EE+ is the rolling release — always current, managed appliance optional. Same engine, same "no auto-merge" guarantee.

How the Quarterly Stable track works

  • One release per purchase — you buy the current quarterly release (today: 2026.Q3) and keep it forever
  • 6 months of patches — CVE fixes and detector updates for your release, counted from its release date. 2026.Q3 is patched through December 2026
  • Upgrade to extend — when your window closes, buy the next quarterly release (2026.Q4, 2027.Q1) to stay current. At any moment exactly two releases are under support
  • Your email is your account — the address you use at Stripe checkout is how you recover your licenses and downloads below

Community stays pay what you want — 0 € is fine. The AUR package and the source are yours under LSL-1.0. If Sober earns its keep, feed the Raccoon — it eats bugs, and it is always hungry.

Why a checkout? The hardened image is never linked publicly. Every download rides on your personal license key — so the hardened artifact is not a public attack surface.
