Hardened Ubuntu 24.04 Features
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for hardening. This AWS-based virtual desktop comes pre-configured with the latest Ubuntu 24.04 LTS GUI image that is optimized for security, featuring advanced hardening measures to help protect against vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with industry best practices. This configuration includes stringent access controls, regular updates, and robust settings to enhance overall system integrity and resilience. Implementing this foundational hardened image can help organizations establish a baseline level of security and reduce their risk exposure to common cyber threats. However, it's important to note that these benchmarks should be considered as a starting point, and organizations may need to customize them based on their specific security requirements and risk profile.
Key features: This hardened image map to many established standards and regulatory frameworks, including the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), the ISO 27000 series of standards, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and others. Hardening is a process that helps protect against unauthorized access, denial of service, and other cyberthreats by limiting potential weaknesses that make systems vulnerable to cyberattacks.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened Ubuntu 24.04 desktop image, billed per running instance. Pricing has no upfront commitment — you are charged only while an instance runs. The many dimensions are not tiers or feature levels. Each one maps to a specific AWS EC2 instance type, from small general-purpose sizes to compute-, memory-, storage-, and GPU-optimized families. Your hourly rate scales with the instance size and family you select. You choose the instance that fits your workload, and the software cost applies on top of the AWS infrastructure charge.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The software charge meters running instance-hours only. A fully stopped instance stops accruing the hourly software fee. Note that AWS may still bill underlying storage for a stopped instance, but the software licence charges for running time only.
Each hourly unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you selected. You are billed per hour, per active instance. Running two instances of the same type bills two hourly units. Each instance type maps to a set amount of vCPU and memory.
The hourly rate covers the hardened Ubuntu 24.04 desktop image with GUI and RDP access. AWS charges its own separate infrastructure fee for the EC2 instance. Your total combines the software hourly charge plus the AWS compute cost for the instance type you pick.
