What is a Security-Hardened Image?

A hardened image is a pre-configured operating system where security best practices, compliance controls, and vulnerability mitigations are already implemented. Instead of spending days manually applying security configurations to a standard OS, you can launch instances that are secure and compliant from the first boot.
