Trial License

  • The trial license has no limitations — all features available in the paid version are included
  • The trial license will expire automatically at the end of its term
  • To continue using cPGuard after the trial, you will need to purchase a new license and apply it to your server

Purchase a Paid License

Once you are satisfied with the trial and ready to proceed with a paid plan, purchase a license from: https://manage.opsshield.com/order/main/index/cPGuard_Licenses

After completing the payment, you will receive a new license key. To activate it on your server, run the following command replacing LICENSE-KEY with your actual key:

cpgcli license --key LICENSE-KEY
