ANSSI BP-028 AWS Hardened Images
Evaluate AWS Hardened Images as an operating-system layer for programs referencing the ANSSI BP-028 Linux configuration recommendations.
Where the framework sits.
ANSSI BP-028 provides configuration recommendations for GNU/Linux systems across graduated hardening levels. Implementation requires choices based on the system’s exposure, function, and compatibility needs.
Where Hardened Images fits.
A hardened image can accelerate the Linux configuration portion of the program, but the selected product, target level, exceptions, and complete system design still require customer review.
Three checks before product selection.
- 01
Map the applicable recommendations to the chosen image
- 02
Test services and packages affected by stricter defaults
- 03
Document product-specific coverage, deviations, and remaining controls
The image supports the program. It does not complete it.
Hardened Images publishes the image configuration and product information. Your organization remains responsible for applicability, the surrounding AWS system, operational evidence, exceptions, and final compliance or authorization decisions.
Choose an AWS image for ANSSI BP-028.
Carry the framework focus into the catalog, then select the supported Linux release, product line, and architecture for the workload.
