Madarson IT Hardened VM Image Intro
This AWS-based ec2 comes pre-configured with the latest Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 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.
Why use Madarson IT Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 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 this hardened Ubuntu 22.04 image, billed per running instance. Pricing has no fixed tiers. Instead, each dimension maps to a specific AWS EC2 instance type, so your rate depends on the instance size and family you choose. General-purpose (m, t), compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r), graphics (g), and high-memory (u) families are all supported. Smaller instances carry lower hourly rates; larger sizes within a family cost more as vCPU and memory scale up. You run only the instances you need and stop charges when you shut them down.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The rate covers a security-hardened Ubuntu 22.04 image at the Level 1: Foundational configuration. This is a baseline hardening aligned with common compliance frameworks. Images are validated and updated regularly with security patches, not delivered as a one-time snapshot. AWS charges for the underlying EC2 instance apply separately.
The software fee meters running time only. When you stop or shut down an instance, the hourly software charge stops accruing. Restarting the instance resumes the charge. Note that stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes, which are billed by AWS separately.
Each line maps to one AWS EC2 instance type. You are billed only for the instance type you actually launch. Your rate follows that choice: general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, graphics, and high-memory families each carry their own hourly rate. Running multiple instance types bills each at its own rate.

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.
