The CiviCRM team will also keep a maintained version of CiviCRM compatible with these updates, to keep compatibility from both sides.
With a subscription, you will be able to access and download this secure version of Drupal, Drupal modules and CiviCRM and apply it to your site in order to stay secure long after the end of life date.

Some common questions we get asked
Other than changing how you keep your CiviCRM site updated, nothing else would need to change! In fact, one of the major reasons we''re offering this solution is to prevent costly migrations with tight timelines being the only option available to the majority nonprofit CiviCRM community.
Once you have the patch you can install it using Composer, Drush or even manually if you so choose. If you already have a CiviCRM partner, they can help do this for you. Otherwise we are happy to advise you on how best to proceed.
No. The subscription fee itself only provides you with the patches to keep your Drupal 7 framework secure and compatible with CiviCRM. Patch installation is not included and you would need to follow the same steps that you would currently for applying your security updates.
