Accounting HR

Overview

This page is the entry point for the SecureAnyCloud Hardened Apache Fineract & Accounting, HR and Finance AMIs listing on AWS Marketplace. The listing is a single product that offers several accounting and finance applications as separate software versions. Subscribe once, choose the version you want in the Software version list at launch, then open its guide below for setup and connection steps.

What SecureAnyCloud adds to every version:

  • Every image is built by SecureAnyCloud on a fully patched base, with the latest security updates applied at build time
  • Services are secure by default: administrator passwords, database credentials and application secrets are generated uniquely on the first boot of each instance
  • No default login exists, and no two instances share a secret

Pricing is metered hourly per EC2 instance type and is the same for every version in this listing. The recommended instance type is m5.large.

How to pick a version

  • Open the listing on AWS Marketplace, choose View purchase options, then choose Subscribe. One subscription covers every product and release in the listing, and the free trial starts with it.
  • When the subscription is active, choose Launch your software.
  • Choose One-click launch from AWS Marketplace, or Launch from EC2 Console for full control. In Version, select the product and release you want. Each version is named <product> <release> on <operating system> - <date>, for example Blnk 0.15.6 on Ubuntu 24.04 - YYYY-MM-DD. The date is when that version was added to the listing.
  • Select your Region, an instance type (m5.large is recommended) and your EC2 key pair. Choose a security group that opens the ports listed in the product's guide, then choose Launch.
  • After launch, open the product's guide below for first login.

You can run several products from one subscription. Launch one instance per product, each from its own software version.

Versions in this listing, newest release first:

  • Blnk: 0.15.6 on Ubuntu 24.04

Security model

Every version in this listing follows the same model:

  • No default login. Administrator passwords, database passwords and application secrets are generated on the first boot of each instance and written to a root-only file. No two instances share a secret.
  • Only the documented ports. Each guide lists the ports its product needs. Open only those in your security group.
  • Internal services on localhost. Databases and caches listen on 127.0.0.1 only. Never open database ports (3306, 5432, 6379) to the internet.
  • Patched base. The operating system is fully patched when the image is built.
  • HTTPS on first boot. Blnk 0.15.6, CGRateS 0.10.5, Fava for Beancount 1.30.16, Firefly III 6.7.9, ezBookkeeping 2.1.1, hledger 1.52.4 and webERP 5.0.1 Accounting (all on Ubuntu 24.04) serve HTTPS with a per-instance certificate from first boot. The other versions serve HTTP. Their guides show how to add a certificate on the instance, or behind an Application Load Balancer with AWS Certificate Manager.

How to tell which version you launched

The version you chose appears on the instance's launch record in the EC2 console (AMI name and description) and in your AWS Marketplace subscription. On the instance itself, the login message shown after you connect over SSH names the product and its credentials file. Open the matching guide above for the remaining steps.
