- Drift Alerts: Any change that weakens STIG posture triggers an immediate alert with the responsible user and process.
- Continuous Validation: Scheduled re-checks verify all STIG controls remain active and no non-compliant changes have been introduced.
- Audit Report Generator: One-command PDF/JSON report documenting every STIG control with pass/fail status.
- Remediation Guidance: Failed checks include step-by-step fix instructions.
- Patch Management: Scheduled updates that preserve STIG compliance with pre/post validation.
Ideal For: Defense contractors, government agencies, and regulated industries requiring DISA STIG-compliant RHEL with documented proof of adherence.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened RHEL 8.8 image, billed per running instance. Pricing is not tiered by plan. Instead, each dimension maps to one AWS EC2 instance type, and your hourly rate follows the size and family you launch. Smaller shared-CPU types like t2 and t3 sit at one end; general-purpose (m-series), compute (c-series), memory (r/x-series), storage (d/i-series), and accelerated (g/p/inf/trn) families scale up with more vCPU and memory. You run only the instances you need and stop paying when you stop them.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the type named in that dimension. You pay the software rate for every hour that instance runs, in addition to the underlying AWS compute cost. The rate matches the instance family and size you launch.
The hourly software charge accrues only while an instance runs. Stopping an instance halts the software charge. Stopped instances may still incur AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but the listing software meters running hours only.
Each running instance bills independently at its own instance-type rate. Charges from multiple instances add together on the same invoice. Running one large instance and several small ones each accrues its own hourly rate for the hours it runs.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
