Step-by-step AlmaLinux deployment process
AlmaLinux OS provides a set of security features: Errata, GPG keys, Mailing Lists, OpenSCAP, OVAL, SBOM
Phase 1: Current status assessment and transition planning (2-3 weeks)
Phase 2: Implementation of the transition
Security Enhancement (6-10 weeks)
Phase 3: Start of operation/
Continuous optimization (continuous)
Comprehensive assessment of your existing CentOS environment and AlmaLinux migration plan formulation. We will develop an optimal migration strategy that integrates security and business requirements.
We will implement a gradual OS migration and security enhancement in parallel, while also building a security monitoring system and improving the operation structure to minimize downtime and improve security levels.
We have implemented a 24-hour monitoring system and emergency response process, and through regular security assessments and continuous improvements, we maintain an optimal level of security at all times.
