Security process: Zabbix says code is reviewed by a senior developer, tasks are tested by QA engineers, and vulnerabilities receive root cause analysis.
Security maintenance: Subscriptions include five years of guaranteed security fixes, and Zabbix says it does not fix security issues in versions that are no longer supported.
