Madarson IT Hardened VM Image Intro
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for hardening. This AWS-based ec2 comes pre-configured with the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 image that is optimized for security, featuring advanced hardening measures to help protect against vulnerabilities and to help ensure compliance with PCI DSS best practices. Implementing PCI DSS benchmarks can help organizations improve their security posture and protect against advanced and persistent threats. The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) benchmarks are a set of security standards designed to ensure that all companies that process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. PCI DSS is crucial for any organization involved in handling payment card transactions, including retailers, e-commerce businesses, financial institutions, and service providers. Beyond compliance, PCI DSS serves as a valuable guide for implementing best practices in cybersecurity, helping organizations protect not only payment data but also other sensitive information within their IT environments
Key features: Compliance and Trust: Adhering to PCI DSS benchmarks not only helps organizations meet regulatory requirements but also fosters trust among customers and partners. Demonstrating PCI DSS compliance signals a commitment to security, which can enhance the reputation and credibility of a business in the eyes of consumers and stakeholders.
Enhanced Security Posture: PCI DSS provides a robust framework for identifying and mitigating security risks. By following these guidelines, organizations can reduce vulnerabilities and strengthen their overall security posture, making it more difficult for attackers to compromise sensitive payment data. This proactive approach to security helps prevent costly data breaches and the associated legal and financial repercussions
Why use Madarson IT Red Hat Enterprise Linux images? Madarson IT certified images are always up to date, secure, follow industry standards, and are built to work right out of the box.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for a hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 image with PCI DSS benchmark configurations. Pricing follows the AWS EC2 instance type you choose. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, from small general-purpose types to large compute, memory, storage, and GPU-optimized instances. The software rate scales with the instance's size and capacity. You run the same hardened image regardless of which instance you pick. Choose the instance that matches your workload's compute, memory, or GPU needs, and you are billed per hour of use with no upfront commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each unit is one hour that a chosen EC2 instance runs the hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 image. The same PCI DSS benchmark configuration runs on every listed instance type. Your instance size sets the hourly software rate, but the image and its security controls stay identical.
The hourly software rate applies only while the instance runs. Stopped instances stop accruing software charges. You may still pay separate AWS fees for attached storage while the instance is stopped, but the hardened image bills running hours only.
Choose the EC2 instance type that fits your compute, memory, storage, or GPU needs. General-purpose, compute, memory, storage, and GPU-optimized types are available. You are billed per hour with no upfront commitment. You can stop one instance and launch another size when your needs change.

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.
