This Azure-based virtual machine is pre-configured with the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 (RAW) image and hardened to align with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).

PCI DSS provides a globally recognized framework for securing cardholder data and preventing unauthorized access, fraud, and data breaches. This hardened image incorporates recommended technical safeguards such as file integrity monitoring, strong access control, and secure audit logging—all critical to meeting PCI DSS compliance objectives.

Designed for organizations that process, store, or transmit credit card data, this image is suitable for use in retail, e-commerce, finance, and SaaS environments requiring secure, compliant infrastructure.

Organizations leveraging this image can establish a secure baseline for PCI DSS audits while minimizing manual configuration overhead and reducing risk exposure in cloud-based payment environments.

• PCI DSS Compliance Support: Pre-hardened to help meet PCI DSS v4.0 technical requirements, including audit controls, secure access policies, logging, and encryption.
• Secure Cardholder Data Handling: Aligned with best practices to protect sensitive financial data across infrastructure and access points.

Madarson IT certified images are security-hardened, continuously updated, and built to work right out of the box. Each image is engineered with compliance in mind, enabling faster time-to-deployment in regulated environments.
