Ubuntu Pro

Enterprise Linux with extended security and compliance
Ubuntu Pro provides enterprise-grade security, compliance, and commercial support for Ubuntu deployments across cloud and on-premises environments. Extending Ubuntu LTS with up to 10 years of security maintenance across the full Ubuntu repository, it helps protect thousands of open-source packages with ongoing security updates and includes capabilities such as kernel live patching to reduce downtime. Ubuntu Pro also supports compliance requirements with tools and certifications such as FIPS 140-2, CIS benchmarks, and DISA-STIG hardening profiles. Through BPS, resellers can deliver secure, compliant, and production-ready enterprise Linux solutions while offering customers long-term protection, predictable support, and added value for regulated and business-critical workloads.
