Overview
What cloudimg adds to every version - Every image is built by cloudimg from the distribution's official cloud image, fully patched at build time and remediated with the OpenSCAP PCI-DSS v4.0 Control Baseline profile (not a PCI DSS attestation).
Why the cloudimg image
Every Hardened image arrives installed, configured and hardened, so there is no manual setup before you can use it. Each is built on a patched base, runs with credentials generated uniquely for your instance on first boot, and passes an automated health check before every release. Every deployment is backed by 24/7 support from cloudimg engineers.
