Introducing CTFreak Sovereign Edition️

Some networks simply cannot reach the Internet.

For these organizations, network isolation isn’t a preference: it’s a regulatory requirement or a core security policy.

Until now, CTFreak required periodic license validation over the network. That meant air-gapped environments were out of reach. Sovereign Edition changes that.

What is Sovereign Edition?

Sovereign Edition includes everything from the Business Edition — PostgreSQL backend, unlimited issue tracking notifiers, priority support — plus one key addition: fully offline licensing.

No license server to contact. No outbound connection required.

Who is it for?

Sovereign Edition targets organizations operating in constrained network environments:

• Financial institutions with PCI-DSS requirements isolating their Cardholder Data Environment
• Healthcare providers under HIPAA (US) or HDS (France) storing protected health information
• Defense and government contractors working in classified or restricted networks
• Critical infrastructure operators (energy, transport, telecom) with strict network segmentation
• Any organization pursuing or maintaining ISO 27001 certification with a minimal external dependency policy

It’s also relevant for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) serving clients in these sectors. If your customers operate air-gapped environments, you need tools that work without calling home.

How offline licensing works

The process is straightforward:

1. Generate a fingerprint from your target server
2. Submit it through the JYP Software Customer area
3. Download your dedicated executable file: the license is embedded and tied to your server

No license file to manage. No activation step. No background daemon checking license status. You download, you deploy, it runs.

When renewing the license, simply download your updated executable file.
