PALO ALTO, CA, UNITED STATES, April 30, 2025 /
EINPresswire.com/ --
TuxCare, a global innovator in cybersecurity, today announced it unveiled new services that help to further bolster AlmaLinux’s stance as a leading, optimized powerhouse OS for enterprises around the globe. Its just-launched
Security Hardening Services for AlmaLinux expand TuxCare’s commitment to the OS and its community, arming users with the automation, guidance and troubleshooting expertise that’s needed to ensure an organization achieves and continually maintains compliance with ever-complex regulations.
Protecting sensitive data while also maintaining system integrity and ensuring compliance, TuxCare’s Security Hardening Services for AlmaLinux follow STIG and CIS benchmarks, ultimately helping organizations more fully align with hardening best practices. The new services leave the work to TuxCare’s experts, offering pre-mapped compliance controls (PCI DSS, FedRAMP, ISO27001, etc.), automated enforcement, and balanced security configurations that don’t interfere with operations or take staff away from their core mission.
In February, TuxCare announced it completed a Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) for AlmaLinux OS 9, ushering in new opportunities for AlmaLinux to greatly expand its presence throughout the government and other enterprise deployments that demand the most powerful safeguards and assurances. With the DISA STIG (which this month received an update to v1r2) and CIS AlmaLinux OS 9 Benchmarks already available, FIPS 140‑3 compliance in place, and today’s launch of Security Hardening Services, TuxCare delivers the highest level of security and compliance for AlmaLinux enterprise deployments.

“With this latest launch of AlmaLinux-focused services, we look to greatly simplify the hardening process and avoid the manual processes that can lead to dangerous misconfigurations and vulnerabilities potentially impacting compliance with several standards,” said Michael Canavan, Chief Revenue Officer at TuxCare. “And since the service is fully customizable, TuxCare’s service will always fit your environment's needs and be ready with the needed experts to eliminate often associated complexities.”
