“TuxCare is pleased to work closely with Cybertrust Japan, as the collaboration underscores the significant value and peace of mind that AlmaCare and our associated support options bring to organizations throughout Japan and elsewhere”

The partnership debuts amid Cybertrust Japan’s significant market share of pre-installed Linux distributions on industrial PCs and elsewhere. The company has gained significant expertise via its M****** LINUX offering, a free Red Hat Enterprise Linux clone specifically used in Japan as a CentOS Linux compatible distribution.

With CentOS Linux 7 set to end its maintenance updates on June 30, 2024, many organizations throughout Japan find themselves in need of a successor Linux OS and smooth migration planning. Cybertrust Japan and TuxCare will mutually cooperate, harnessing their proficiency and know-how by offering TuxCare’s unique AlmaCare support options beginning June 1, 2023.

With a maximum of 16 years of long-term support, the AlmaLinux Standard Support offering to be delivered through Cybertrust Japan provides package updates and security patches for AlmaLinux OS and technical support in Japanese to enable long-term operation of Linux system environments. Additionally, by purchasing a separately available option, customers can choose to receive live patches that enable kernel updates without shutting down the OS, and support for FIPS 140-3, the latest information processing standard developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
