    JOOMLA 5.2.2 CMS - PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS SOLUTION

    Kotschak Ausbau GmbH presents a fully configured Joomla 5.2.2 Content Management System on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, designed for immediate deployment of professional business websites, corporate portals, and industry-specific applications.

    COMPLETE LAMP STACK INCLUDED

    This AMI provides a production-optimized environment with Apache 2.4 web server, MySQL 8.0 database with InnoDB engine, and PHP 8.3 with all required Joomla extensions pre-installed including XML, cURL, GD Graphics, mbstring, ZIP, and Intl. The stack is tuned for optimal performance with 256MB PHP memory limit, 64MB upload limits, and 300-second execution timeout.

    AUTOMATED SECURE DEPLOYMENT

    Every instance launch triggers an automated first-boot process that generates cryptographically secure random passwords for both MySQL root and Joomla database user, retrieves instance metadata including public IP and instance ID, configures all services, and creates a credentials file in the ubuntu home directory. This zero-configuration approach eliminates manual setup while ensuring each deployment has unique security credentials.

    ENTERPRISE SECURITY FEATURES

    Multi-layered security includes Fail2ban intrusion detection actively monitoring for brute-force attacks, UFW firewall with SSH port 22, HTTP port 80, and HTTPS port 443 configured, SSH hardening with root login disabled and password authentication blocked, MySQL localhost-only binding preventing external database access, and Apache security headers enabled to protect against common web vulnerabilities.

    SSL AND HTTPS READY

    Pre-configured Apache SSL module and virtual host configuration allow immediate HTTPS deployment. Simply add your SSL certificate and private key to enable encrypted connections. Self-signed certificates are included for development and testing purposes.
