1-Click AWS EC2 Deployment Guide
Launch Enterprise PII Guardrails into your AWS account in under 3 minutes. Test real-time PII redaction, custom regex engines, and LLM integrations with zero initial setup and automatic evaluation licensing (10,000 requests included).
Deploy Directly to AWS Console
Provisions an Amazon Linux 2023 t3.medium instance with 20 GB encrypted EBS storage, auto-managed Docker runtime, and pre-activated evaluation license (10,000 requests quota).
Lifecycle & Node-Locked Conversion Pipeline
1-Click CloudFormation boots the instance with an automatic evaluation license (10,000 requests quota). No credit card or upfront sales call required.
Log into the Studio Web UI. The Licensing tab displays your instance's unique, persistent Hardware ID (e.g. A1B2-C3D4-E5F6-7890).
Email the HWID to activate a permanent Node-Locked Production license. Paste the key into the UI—zero data loss, zero re-deployments.
Step-by-Step Deployment Instructions
Click the Launch on AWS EC2 button above. The AWS CloudFormation Quick-create wizard will open in your AWS console. Configure the following parameters:
admin). Avoid generic passwords.
203.0.113.25/32) or leave 0.0.0.0/0 for sandbox trials.
t3.medium (2 vCPU, 4GB RAM). Higher tiers (c6i.large) available for high-throughput loads.
Once CloudFormation displays CREATE_COMPLETE (typically ~2 to 3 minutes), click the Outputs tab:
Log in with username admin and the password you defined in Step 1.
All audit logs, custom regex patterns, and compliance rules are saved in persistent encrypted storage at /opt/piiguardrails/data. You never need to rebuild or redeploy when your trial finishes:
- In the Studio Web UI, go to the Licensing tab.
- Copy your 16-character Server Hardware ID (e.g.
A1B2-C3D4-E5F6-7890). - Email piiguardrails@gmail.com with your Hardware ID and preferred tier (Standard or Enterprise).
- Paste your issued commercial key into the license field and click Activate.
Security & Architecture Guarantees
No telemetry or inspection payloads ever leave your EC2 instance. All NLP tokenization and redactions run locally on your VM.
Every database record is encrypted at rest using an automated 256-bit passphrase stored securely on the host.
Your database and configuration persist across instance stops, reboots, and container restarts on the encrypted EBS volume.
Managed via systemd supervisor to ensure high availability and automatic recovery in case of system reboots.
