Pricing
Compare and contrast the differences between UDS Core and UDS premium. If you have questions, we’re happy to talk about your unique mission needs.
UDS Core
UDS Core is the free, open source foundation of the UDS platform, created to enable secure, portable, and airgap-ready software delivery. It gives you access to tools that help package, deploy, and run mission software in disconnected or classified environments.
Who is it for?
UDS Core is ideal for developers, platform engineers, and DevSecOps teams who need to build and deliver software to environments with no persistent connectivity, such as classified, on-prem, or tactical systems.
What’s included
- Secure runtime platform
- Zarf packaging tool (for bundling apps and dependencies)
- Secure runtime and policy engine
- SBOM generation and CVE scanning
- Support for airgap deployments
- OCI-compliant container support
Does it work in airgapped environments?
Yes. All packages can be created and deployed without requiring a persistent network connection.
Does it include compliance and security automation support?
Yes. UDS Core automates the inclusion of security metadata like SBOMs and CVEs in every package and supports policy enforcement aligned to frameworks like NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5, giving teams a head start on ATO requirements.
Does it work with existing infrastructure?
Yes. UDS Core is infrastructure-agnostic and supports deployment to bare metal, on-prem clusters, classified networks, and other DoW-relevant environments using Kubernetes.
Is it open source?
Yes. UDS Core is fully open source under a permissive license. Users can download, modify, and run the platform without licensing restrictions. However, premium capabilities like the UI, registry interface, and advanced support are only available through UDS Premium and Tactical Edge.
Is support included?
Support is not included in UDS Core.
