Show the rest of the publisher’s description (15 more lines)
Locked-down environments need controlled egress. Whether you are meeting compliance requirements that mandate outbound traffic inspection, reducing bandwidth costs through caching, or giving isolated subnets a single audited path to the internet, Squid remains the industry-standard forward proxy and this image removes the setup burden.
What you get out of the box
- Latest stable Squid release, installed and enabled on first boot
- CIS-aligned OS hardening applied to the underlying Operating System base
- Access logging pre-configured in a format ready for Sentinel or any SIEM ingestion
- Support for authentication helpers (basic, LDAP, Kerberos) enable per your directory environment
Common use cases
- Egress control: give private subnets a single, policy-enforced internet path
- Compliance logging: full audit trail of outbound web requests for regulated workloads
- Bandwidth optimisation: cache repeated downloads (OS packages, container layers, updates) across a fleet
- Web filtering: allow-list or block destinations by domain, category or time-of-day ACLs
- Development environments: reproduce corporate proxy conditions for realistic testing
Who this is for
Cloud engineers, security teams, managed service providers and system administrators running AWS workloads that require governed outbound access from single VM deployments to proxy tiers behind an AWS Load Balancer.

Unknown means this listing does not publish a repository. It is not a statement that the code is closed, and a linked repository is not a claim that the publisher wrote it: the registry computes that relationship privately and does not publish it.
Evidence risk is the share of the build you cannot see before you deploy, not a security rating. Sign in to see the layer-by-layer basis for this band.
