Operating System Hardening on QualiX and also CloudShell App & Database installer
Hi QualiSystem
I would like to request for a feature enhancement of Operating System (OS) Hardening Script based on CIS Benchmark for the current QualiX Virtual Appliance (Vmware & KVM) and also the installer of CloudShell for App and Database Installer. Reason being is QualiSystem is currently promoting CloudShell as a CyberRange Solution for organization / education industries as part of the IT Security Awareness for employees and students to learn the important of Cyber Security in the current IT industries. Thus, security hardening for the machines that host the QualiX and CloudShell App and Database Server should be secured as well. This is part of the IT Security requirement. With this in mind, if QualiSystem provide the OS hardening on QualiX and hardening script for CloudShell App and Database installer in the upcoming version, this will be a plus point that QualiSystem's CloudShell is IT Security focus and this also give a good impression of the CloudShell product.
Thanks.

Hi George,
For the use case you described we provided the Docker container QualiX :
http://help.quali.com/doc/8.2/qualix/Content/QualiX/Instl-Cnfg-Docker.htm
Using a container gives you the bare minimum of the OS along with the ability to manage and control the network ports.
We don’t currently provide recommendations for changing the image, it is tested as is and changing it isn't supported.
Regarding SW update, we dont provide them as yum updates since it requires several other configuration on our end, when we release a new version of QualiX we provide it along with a ready tested image for deployment.
