This product has charges associated with it for providing dedicated seller support and OS-level hardening by Blume in line with ACSC Essential Eight compliance. The ACSC Essential Eight CentOS 10 AMI delivers a compliance-ready operating system with security controls mapped to the Australian Cyber Security Centre's baseline mitigation strategies.
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for dedicated seller support and operating system hardening by Blume.
Our AMIs are specifically hardened to meet ACSC Essential Eight compliance, which defines the baseline set of mitigation strategies recommended by the Australian Cyber Security Centre to protect systems against common cyber threats. These controls include application whitelisting, patching applications and operating systems, restricting administrative privileges, implementing multi-factor authentication, and other key strategies that strengthen overall system security.
By delivering an OS image aligned with ACSC Essential Eight, organizations can accelerate compliance efforts and improve their security posture without needing to manually configure and audit the baseline themselves.
Achieving ACSC compliance matters because it ensures that your operating system is built against recognized Australian government security standards, reducing vulnerabilities, strengthening resilience against attacks, and meeting regulatory or industry mandated governance requirements.
Finally, our operating systems are not only compliance ready but are also consistently updated, ensuring that the latest security patches are applied in a timely manner to maintain protection and reliability in production environments.
Highlights
Blume has been established since 2020 and is a trusted brand relied upon by many large corporations for secure and compliant solutions.
This AMI is updated and compliance-ready out of the box, requiring no additional configuration steps to meet ACSC Essential Eight standards.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you run. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, from small general-purpose options like t3.nano up to large memory, compute, storage, and GPU-focused machines such as u7in-32tb.224xlarge or p5.48xlarge. Pricing scales with the size and capability of the instance you select, so larger machines cost more per hour. The hourly rate covers the hardened CentOS 10 image and vendor support. You only pay for the hours each instance actually runs, with no commitment term.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one billable unit for an EC2 instance type dimension?
Each dimension maps to one running EC2 instance of that type, billed per hour. The hourly rate covers the hardened CentOS 10 image plus vendor support for that single instance. Running two instances of the same type bills two hourly rates. Instance size and capability set the per-hour price.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or powered off?
The hourly software charge meters running time only. A fully stopped or powered-off instance stops accruing the software and support fee. Underlying AWS storage or other AWS resource charges may still apply separately. You pay only for the hours each instance actually runs, with no commitment term.
What does the hourly rate cover, and what remains my responsibility?
The rate covers the hardened CentOS 10 operating-system image and the vendor support defined in the listing. You stay responsible for workload configuration, identity, networking, application security, and monitoring. The vendor addresses the operating-system image and product-specific controls, not whether your complete system meets every obligation.

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.

Usage instructions
We recommend scoping your launched EC2 instance to only your internal network and restricting access to your own IP address for maximum security.
How to Connect to Your CentOS 10 Instance Using SSH:
Locate your key pair: Ensure you have the .pem key pair file selected when launching the instance. Save it securely on your local machine.
Set permissions: Update the file permissions on the key file so it is not publicly viewable. Example: chmod 400 your-key.pem
Find the public DNS or IP: In the AWS Management Console, open the EC2 Dashboard and locate the Public DNS (IPv4) or Public IP of your instance.
Connect with SSH: From your terminal, run the following command, replacing your-key.pem with your key file and <public-dns> with your instance details:
ssh -i your-key.pem ec2-user@<public-dns>
Accept the fingerprint: When prompted, confirm the fingerprint to establish the first-time connection.
You are now connected to your CentOS 10 instance via SSH.
