Our Bastion AMI on AWS Marketplace is designed with a focus on security, efficiency, and consistency. It incorporates security best practices, including pre-configured firewall rules and hardened operating system settings, reducing the risk and effort involved in manual configurations. The AMI streamlines the deployment process, saving time and reducing technical demands, while ensuring consistent security standards across various environments. Additionally, it supports version control and comes with comprehensive documentation to guide users through configurations and troubleshooting, enhancing maintainability and update efficiency.
Overview
What do we offer with our Bastion AMI?
- Security Best Practices Our AWS Bastion AMI is configured with security best practices in mind. As minimum AMI includes recommended settings and configurations required by AWS, reducing the risk of overlooking crucial security measures. Additionally it includes pre-configured firewall rules, ensuring that only essential communication is allowed. The operating system settings are hardened to reduce the attack surface, and unnecessary services or ports are disabled to minimize potential entry points for malicious actors. Our approach significantly reduces the likelihood of overlooking critical security configurations that might be missed when setting up a Bastion Host manually. Moreover, our Bastion AMIs incorporate the latest security updates and patches, providing a solid foundation that aligns with current security standards.
- Time and Effort Savings Building a secure and functional Bastion Host from scratch involves various steps, including configuring the operating system, setting up security measures, and fine-tuning access controls. This process demands a significant investment of time and technical expertise. Choosing our Bastion AMI streamlines this journey, resulting in substantial time and effort savings. This is particularly beneficial in scenarios where rapid deployment is crucial, such as during sudden increases in workload or in response to dynamic operational requirements. Our Bastion AMI is for users who might be less experienced in AWS or those who prioritize efficiency in their deployment workflows. Instead of investing hours or days in setting up a Bastion Host, you can launch instances based on a pre-made AMI within minutes, allowing you to focus on other aspects of cloud infrastructure.
- Consistency Across Environment Prezelfy Bastion AMI provide consistency across different environments. Whether you're setting up multiple Bastion Hosts for different projects or replicating your infrastructure in various regions, using the same pre-configured AMI ensures uniformity. This helps in maintaining a standardized and easily manageable infrastructure. Bastion AMI is replicated automatically through multiple AWS regions.
- Version Control and Updates Bastion AMI is versioned, allowing you to keep track of changes and updates. When security patches or improvements become available, the AMI is updated, and instances can be launched with the latest version. This ensures that your Bastion Hosts are running on the most secure and up-to-date configurations. All versions are documented on our GitHub repository.
- Documentation Our AMI comes with documentation that guides you through common configurations and troubleshooting steps. This not only accelerates the deployment process but also aids in ongoing management, reducing the time spent on maintenance and support.
Highlights
- Robust Security Framework: Our Bastion AMI is tailored with industry-leading security practices, featuring CIS hardened operating systems that significantly reduce the system's attack surface. This includes disabling unnecessary services or ports to minimize entry points for threats, and regular updates to align with the latest security standards.
- Rapid Deployment Savings: Designed for quick and efficient setup, our Bastion AMI allows you to deploy a secure host within minutes, saving valuable time and technical resources. This is particularly advantageous during urgent expansions or when immediate response is essential, accommodating users of all expertise levels.
- Consistent Infrastructure Standardization: Deploy the same AMI across different projects and AWS regions to ensure a consistent and controlled environment. This standardization simplifies scalability and management, enhancing the reliability and predictability of your cloud infrastructure across multiple deployments.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for each running instance of this hardened Bastion Host image. Pricing is not tiered. Instead, each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type you choose to run. Your hourly rate depends on which instance type you select, since each type carries different compute, memory, and network capacity. The software runs the same across all types; only the underlying instance size and family change the rate. You can run smaller general-purpose sizes or larger compute-, memory-, and storage-focused families. This charge is separate from standard AWS infrastructure fees for the instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the hardened image, billed per hour. The rate ties to the instance type you launch. The image comes configured with hardened operating system settings, pre-set firewall rules, and disabled unnecessary ports. You run it as a single instance in a public subnet.
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped instance does not accrue software charges. Note that stopped instances may still incur standard AWS storage fees for attached volumes and any Elastic IP. Relaunch the instance to resume both software billing and access.
Each running instance bills independently by the hour at the rate for its instance type. Running the same image in multiple regions or projects adds separate hourly charges per instance. The image replicates automatically across AWS regions, so charges stack per active instance rather than combining into one fee.

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.
