What the publisher says
As described on AWS Marketplace.
Aguilar Secured AL2023 is a repackaged version of the official Amazon Linux 2023 AMI, hardened and pre-configured for teams who want a secure baseline server without doing the security setup work themselves.
This is a repackaged open source software product. Additional charges apply for ongoing image maintenance, security hardening, and optional support - the underlying operating system remains Amazon Linux 2023, unmodified in its core functionality.

- **Pre-configured security baseline** - root SSH login disabled, password authentication disabled (key-only access), aligned with common hardening best practices
- **Built on official Amazon Linux 2023** - no changes to the core OS, kernel, or package management - you get everything AL2023 normally provides, plus this hardening layer
**What your charges cover**
- Ongoing image maintenance and validation of security patches
- Additional hardening and pre-configuration work
- Optional support, available directly from Aguilar Technology Productions LLC
**Who it's for**
- Teams and individuals who want a secure server baseline without manually configuring Fail2ban and update automation on every new instance

- Developers and small businesses who want reduced setup time and an improved security posture out of the box
**Getting started**
Launch this AMI like any other EC2 instance, connect over SSH as `ec2-user`, and you're already running with Fail2ban active and automatic security updates enabled - no post-launch configuration required. Full usage instructions are included in the Support Resources. This version offers an optional annual prepayment discount alongside standard hourly billing.
Highlights
Highlighted by the publisher on AWS Marketplace.
Fail2ban is pre-installed and active out of the box, automatically banning IPs after repeated failed SSH login attempts - no manual jail configuration needed before your instance is protected.
Automatic security updates keep your instance patched against known vulnerabilities without manual intervention, using Amazon Linux 2023's native update automation.
Built on the official, unmodified Amazon Linux 2023 base - you get full AL2023 compatibility plus a hardened baseline (root login disabled, key-only SSH) ready in minutes.

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.
