Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 Hardened (RHEL 10 Hardened) is a pre-configured Machine Image (AMI) available on Marketplace, built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 and hardened according to internationally recognized security standards, including CIS Benchmarks, DISA STIG, and controls aligned with NIST 800-53 and PCI-DSS. This AMI ships with pre-applied hardening configurations such as strict password policies, SELinux in enforcing mode, LUKS disk encryption, auditd auditing, firewalld firewall rules, disabled insecure services and protocols, and a reduced attack surface based on the principle of least privilege enabling organizations to deploy mission-critical workloads on with accelerated regulatory compliance while dramatically reducing configuration time, security risks, and operational costs associated with manual remediation.

Key features and benefits include: audit-ready compliance (CIS, STIG, NIST, HIPAA, PCI-DSS); native integration with services such as EC2, Systems Manager, CloudWatch, Config, CloudTrail, Inspector, Security Hub, and KMS; support for hardened kernel, SELinux, FIPS 140-3, Trusted Platform Module (TPM), UEFI Secure Boot, and EBS encryption; and compatibility with both x86_64 and Graviton (ARM64) architectures. As an officially subscribed Marketplace AMI, customers benefit from consolidated billing, continuous security updates, Red Hat enterprise support, and the ability to scale horizontally through Auto Scaling Groups, containers (Podman, OpenShift), and serverless or hybrid architectures. It is the ideal solution for regulated industries such as banking, government, healthcare, defense, and telecommunications, as well as any organization requiring Zero Trust, defense-in-depth, and regulatory compliance on without compromising performance or availability.
