GoldDisk Plus is a DoD STIG-hardened Linux Redhat (RHEL) 6.6 Amazon Machine Image (AMI). GoldDisk Plus allows customers to quickly establish DISA Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) compliant servers in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud environment. As an included option, GoldDisk Plus goes well beyond providing a simply up-to-date STIG-complaint OS image. The plus in GoldDisk Plus is ConfigOS, our revolutionary tool for STIG policy remediation. ConfigOS utilizes new patented technology to automate the remediation of production servers using a simple XML policy signature. The traditional multi-day STIG policy update and testing process now takes as little as 5 minutes - reducing server security policy maintenance expenses by over 70%. GoldDisk Plus allows government customers, and those organizations that support them, to reduce the cost and effort for implementing and maintaining compliant systems in the Amazon cloud environment.
