Overview
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for hardening, security configuration, and support.
WHAT IS VAULTWARDEN
Vaultwarden is a lightweight self-hosted password manager server written in Rust - an unofficial community reimplementation of the Bitwarden client API. It supports the full Bitwarden self-hosted feature set (vault items, secure notes, attachments, TOTP, FIDO2/U2F, organisations, collections, sends, emergency access, password breach checks) without requiring the full official server stack of MSSQL, Identity Server and multiple .NET microservices. The single Rust binary plus a bundled web vault (Bitwarden's GPL-3.0 web client) serves all official Bitwarden desktop, mobile and browser-extension clients on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. Persists vault data and metadata in SQLite by default (PostgreSQL and MySQL optional). AGPL-3.0 license - practical choice for small and medium teams that want a self-hosted vault without the operational footprint of the full Bitwarden server.
WHAT THIS AMI ADDS
Security hardening:
- HTTPS enabled at first boot with a self-signed certificate
- Unique admin token generated per instance
- Certbot pre-installed - replace self-signed cert with Let's Encrypt in one command
- SQLite database accessible from localhost only
- UFW firewall - only ports 80, 443, and 22 open
- fail2ban, AppArmor
OS hardening (CIS Level 1):
- CIS Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Level 1 benchmark applied via ansible-lockdown
- auditd, SSH hardening, Kernel hardening, IMDSv2 enforced
Compliance artifacts:
- SBOM - CycloneDX 1.6 at /etc/lynxroute/sbom.json
- CIS Conformance Report at /etc/lynxroute/cis-report.html
- CIS Tailored Profile at /usr/share/doc/lynxroute/CIS_TAILORED_PROFILE.md
Highlights
- Vaultwarden secure by default: HTTPS with self-signed cert, unique admin token per instance, Certbot pre-installed for Let's Encrypt - password vault access over plain HTTP is disabled out of the box.
- CIS Level 1 hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS: auditd, fail2ban, AppArmor, SSH key-only, IMDSv2 enforced. CVE-scanned before every release. SBOM (CycloneDX) and CIS Conformance Report included.
- Full Bitwarden client compatibility: all official Bitwarden apps on desktop, mobile, and browser work with this Vaultwarden server - no client changes, no code changes, no per-user SaaS fees.
