Built for the long haul.
Ready for quick wins.
Lightning IQ is enterprise software. It earns its keep over time. Most customers license it for 1, 3, or 5 years so it can do the heavy lifting every day.
We also listened to teams who want to deploy fast, fix a problem, and switch off. That is why we offer short-term project SKUs.
Two ways to buy
Choose the licensing model that matches your operational needs.
Annual Subscriptions
1, 3, or 5 years
Best for ongoing compliance, cost reduction, cyber hygiene and AI readiness across multiple business units. Always-on visibility. Daily scans. Continuous outcomes.
Project Subscriptions
1, 3, or 6 months
