Summary of building a hardened LAMP stack and deploying it in Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Congratulations! You have moved an application from a simple local script to a fully hardened, bootable Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 server. Because you used Red Hat Hardened Images, your application starts with a verified foundation and far fewer security alerts to worry about.
This learning path introduced a workflow that focuses on a hardened security posture. You used Red Hat Hardened Images to create your application, then packaged those containers into an immutable bootable container using image mode for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Hardened Images let you spend your time writing code, not chasing down alerts for parts of the operating system (OS) you aren't even using. They are stripped of "extra junk," so there are fewer parts that can break or be attacked, and they have reduced alerts from security scanners—if a file isn't in your container, a scanner can't flag it. This helps you focus on your code rather than managing potential vulnerabilities.
To turn this prototype into a functional production application, consider adding routes, logic, and APIs to your application. PHP: The Right Way is a community-driven resource that provides a quick reference for PHP coding standards and authoritative tutorials.
