systems secure and compliant
What Is Included in Endless Lifecycle Support?
Rapid CVE Response
Rapid SLA-backed security patches
for as long as you need
Cybercriminals actively exploit newly discovered flaws – especially in unsupported systems. With guaranteed timelines and rapid patch delivery, TuxCare keeps your infrastructure protected and ahead of evolving threats.
Complete Coverage
Security fixes for both direct and transitive
dependencies AT NO EXTRA COST
Fixing the parent package doesn’t automatically address risks hidden in its dependencies, leaving multiple layers vulnerable. ELS protects you at every level, covering both direct and transitive dependencies without added cost.
Secure Delivery
Get patches quickly and securely –
no extra tooling is needed
All ELS updates are delivered through secure, TuxCare-hosted repositories, ensuring verified, tamper-proof delivery directly to your systems. Packages are signed and built to enterprise standards so that you can trust every update.
Seamless Integration
ELS packages fit right
into your existing workflows
TuxCare’s ELS packages plug into your existing workflows and CI/CD pipelines, with full support for yum, apt, pip, Maven, Gradle, npm and others. Updates flow through your current toolchain without disruptions and process changes.
Support You Can Trust
Around-the-clock expertise
whenever you need it
TuxCare’s global support team is available 24/7/365 to provide responsive assistance with:
- CVE reporting and prioritization
- Patch requests
- Integration support
- Break/fix troubleshooting
How Does It Work?
1
We onboard new projects and enable 24/7 automated CVE tracking – monitoring the NVD, vendor, and GitHub security advisories, and other sources.
2
Once CVEs are detected, we backport upstream fixes using algorithmic and AI-assisted automation, with expert validation to ensure accuracy.
3
Patches are compiled in a binary format, extensively tested (for integrity, functionality, and regression), signed, and deployed to ELS repositories.
4
Your package managers, build tools, or orchestrators check for updates, then automatically pull and install them.
