Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 Image - Hardened for NIST 800-171 Compliance

This is a repackaged software product from Madarson IT, with additional charges applied for advanced security hardening aligned to NIST 800-171.

This AWS-based EC2 instance comes pre-configured with the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 image, specifically hardened to help organizations meet the requirements outlined in NIST Special Publication 800-171: Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations.

NIST 800-171 is a U.S. federal standard that defines security controls for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) in systems outside the federal government. It applies to defense contractors, research institutions, grant recipients, and any non-federal entities that store, process, or transmit CUI as part of contracts with the U.S. government.

This hardened image helps accelerate compliance by implementing strong baseline configurations, reducing attack surfaces, and enforcing access control, audit readiness, and secure transmission practices -- all core to NIST 800-171s 14 control families.

Key Features: Access Control Enforcement: Enforces least privilege, session timeout, and account management best practices. Audit and Accountability: Supports logging and monitoring to help meet auditability requirements for CUI-related activities. System and Communications Protection: Applies secure configurations for data in transit and at rest. Incident Response Readiness: Supports rapid detection and recovery through hardened logging and alerting controls.
