Yes. Argus is AGPL-3.0 licensed. All 199 security checks, all 4 compliance frameworks, and the interactive dashboard are included free forever. No feature gating, no usage limits. The AGPL ensures the core engine stays open source — anyone who modifies and runs it as a network service must share their changes.
What's included in the 14-day trial?
The full Argus Cloud experience —automated scans, hosted dashboard, regression alerts, AI Analyst, multi-tenant management, RBAC, mute rules, integrations, and API access. No credit card required.
Can I self-host the dashboard?
Yes. The Dash dashboard is included in the open-source package and can be run locally or on your own infrastructure. Argus Cloud provides a hosted version with additional features like trend tracking and compliance history.
What Google Workspace editions are supported?
All editions —Business Starter, Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus, Education, and Essentials. Some checks require Enterprise features and will be flagged accordingly in the report.
How does the AI Analyst work?
The AI Analyst is a tool-calling agent that queries your audit data to answer questions, explain findings, and suggest remediation steps. In the open-source version, you provide your own API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.). Argus Cloud includes the AI Analyst at no extra cost —no API key needed.
Can I run Argus in CI/CD?
Yes. Argus ships as a Docker image and includes a ready-made GitHub Actions workflow. You can integrate it into any CI/CD pipeline to run scheduled audits or trigger scans on demand.
