03 / SECURITY RESPONSIBILITIES

Maintenance depends on the plan you choose.

With License

FDE provides Updates for months 1–3. After that, the purchaser manages the installed version unless it opts into continued Updates.

02

With License Plus

The purchaser receives source code and manages modification, compatibility, updates, and security. No Updates entitlement is included.
