Security

Security design principles

  • No hardcoded Grafana passwords — set on first login.
  • No hardcoded credentials or SSH keys.
  • All OS security updates applied at build time.
  • Restrict ports 3000 and 9090 to your IP via EC2 security group.

Configuration

This image works out of the box. Customise using EC2 user data (cloud-init) at launch, or connect over SSH after the instance starts.

Security

Never embed credentials in cloud-init user data. Use AWS Secrets Manager, Parameter Store, or IAM instance profiles.
