This product includes charges for the pre-configured compliance and security setup, along with ongoing image maintenance. HIPAA-compliant Rocky Linux 10 is designed to help organizations meet the rigorous privacy and security requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), safeguarding protected health information (PHI) in the cloud.
Overview
This Rocky Linux 10 virtual machine image is fully preconfigured to meet HIPAA compliance requirements and deploys in minutes. It eliminates the weeks of manual hardening and configuration typically required with a baseline operating system and delivers hundreds of tested security controls out of the box, providing a proven secure foundation for workloads handling protected health information (PHI).
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act HIPAA sets national standards for the protection of sensitive patient data. HIPAA compliance ensures that systems handling PHI implement the necessary administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of health information. This is critical for healthcare providers, insurers, and any organization that stores, processes, or transmits PHI. Meeting HIPAA requirements on a baseline operating system can take significant time and specialized expertise.
This preconfigured Rocky Linux 10 image accelerates compliance by delivering a secure, HIPAA-aligned environment from the moment it launches. It reduces risk from misconfiguration, saves engineering resources, and provides a tested, compliant foundation from day one.
Foundation Security images are updated regularly to keep pace with evolving security threats and compliance requirements, ensuring workloads remain protected over time. This offering is ideal for healthcare organizations, life sciences companies, and any business that must safeguard sensitive health data while meeting audit and regulatory requirements.
Foundation Security has a team of industry experts with deep knowledge of HIPAA, NIST, and other compliance frameworks, ensuring every image is built and maintained to the highest security standards. The team also provides ongoing support to help customers maintain compliance and adapt to evolving regulations. Foundation Security is a proud AWS Partner exclusively focused on helping organizations achieve compliance with HIPAA, NIST, and STIG standards.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for this hardened Rocky Linux 10 image, billed per running instance. Pricing is not tiered. Instead, each rate maps to a specific AWS EC2 instance type you choose to run. Rates scale with the size and family of the instance you select. Smaller instances like t3.nano or t2.micro carry lower hourly rates, while large memory, compute, GPU, and bare-metal types like u7in-32tb.224xlarge or p5.48xlarge carry higher rates. Software charges apply on top of standard AWS infrastructure fees. You match your workload needs to the matching instance size.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each hourly rate covers the hardened Rocky Linux 10 software licence running on one EC2 instance of the type you pick. It does not include the underlying AWS compute, storage, or data transfer fees. Those AWS infrastructure charges bill separately on the same account.
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance stops accruing the software rate. Stopped instances may still incur AWS storage fees for attached volumes, but those are separate AWS charges, not the software licence charge.
Rates are tied to the instance type you run, not a locked plan. You can stop the instance and relaunch the image on a smaller type. Your hourly software charge then follows the new type's rate. No tier upgrade or downgrade step applies.

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.
