Documentation¶
This section provides documentation for deploying and managing Kryden Solutions STIG-aligned cloud images.
About Our Products¶
Kryden Solutions LLC provides STIG-aligned cloud images that give you a head start on OS security hardening. Our images are pre-configured according to DISA Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) standards, saving significant time compared to hardening from scratch.
Important
Our images provide a baseline configuration intended as a starting point for your hardening efforts. They are not certified for immediate production deployment. You are responsible for validating, testing, and customizing the configuration for your specific compliance requirements.

Licensing¶
Most Kryden Solutions images are Bring Your Own License (BYOL). Amazon Linux 2023 is free and requires no additional OS license. For RHEL images, ensure you have an active Red Hat subscription.
Before Production Deployment¶
Regardless of cloud platform, ensure you:
- Run your own compliance scan using OpenSCAP or your preferred tool
- Review and adjust disabled controls based on your requirements
- Validate all security settings against your organization's policies
- Perform thorough testing in a non-production environment
- Document any modifications made for your compliance records
