Frequently Asked Questions
What stays free?
Everything that runs on your machine, forever: the full 6-layer defence pipeline, unlimited local scans, the local dashboard, Iron Dome, custom injection patterns and policies, custom firewall rules, audit export, the dependency scanner, Cortex mistake-learning, unlimited X-Ray with the CI/CD gate, the MCP memory system with knowledge graph, and every agent integration (Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, VS Code, Cursor). The cloud free tier — 500 scans/month, 7-day audit retention, 1 member — is included too. None of it will ever be gated.
How does the cloud free tier work?
Sign in with just your email — a magic link creates your account and API key, and the local dashboard auto-configures cloud sync. Only scan metadata is synced; content never leaves your machine. You get 500 scans/month, 7-day audit retention, and 1 member. Teams, servers, and fleets — memory sync at scale, device management, incident replay, verification, SSO — are Enterprise: sales@drakonsystems.com.
Can I self-host?
The npm package runs entirely locally — no cloud required. For organisations wanting a private cloud deployment with centralised management, see the Enterprise plan.
I already have a licence key — does it still work?
Yes. Activate it locally with shieldcortex license activate <key> — keys are verified offline using Ed25519 signatures, and existing subscriptions continue unchanged (manage or cancel any time via your Stripe billing portal). Enterprise customers receive licence keys as part of onboarding.
Both plans include: full 6-layer defence pipeline, Iron Dome, MCP memory system, unlimited local scans, npm package updates, macOS/Linux/Windows support
