Open Source Licenses

Securius Shield is built on and distributed with open source software, and we're grateful to the communities behind it. This page credits the third-party components included in the Securius Shield software we distribute, along with their licenses.

This page is being finalised. The component lists below are placeholders and will be completed from a verified inventory before launch. The information here is provided for transparency and is not legal advice.

Permissive components

Components under permissive licenses (such as MIT, ISC, BSD, or Apache 2.0), which typically require us to reproduce their copyright notice and license text.

Component License Copyright
TO BE COMPLETED from a real inventory (license-checker / SBOM) + lawyer confirmation before launch.

Copyleft / GPL components

Components under copyleft licenses (such as GPL or LGPL), which typically require us to provide attribution and a link to — or offer of — the corresponding source code.

Component License Source
TO BE COMPLETED from a real inventory (license-checker / SBOM) + lawyer confirmation before launch. Each copyleft component should link to its corresponding source.

DNS filtering engine

Securius Shield is a dashboard and management layer over an open source DNS filtering engine, which runs as a separate component on your device.

Component License Notes
PLACEHOLDER — pending lawyer review of whether and how to credit the underlying DNS filtering engine here, given it is obtained separately at runtime rather than redistributed by us.
