A developer deploying a web application on Alibaba Cloud Linux servers backed by RDS needs to harden both the OS-level compliance baseline (MLPS 2.0, CVE patches) and the database access controls (IP whitelists, SSL encryption) to pass a unified security audit.

Q: How can I harden my full application stack, including both servers and databases, to achieve MLPS 2.0 compliance and pass a security audit? A: You can harden your full application stack by combining Alibaba Cloud Linux system compliance configuration with ApsaraDB RDS database security settings. Use the alinux-configure-compliance skill to apply OS-level baselines and MLPS 2.0 patches, while the rds-configure-security skill configures database access controls like IP whitelists and SSL encryption. Implementing both together ensures your cloud deployment meets unified compliance standards and passes security audits.
