What is SuiteCRM

SuiteCRM is a self-hosted Customer Relationship Management platform implemented in PHP 8.3, served by Nginx with PHP-FPM over MySQL 8.0. A community-driven successor to SugarCRM Community Edition, it covers the full revenue pipeline - accounts, contacts, leads, opportunities, cases, campaigns, quotes, calendar, projects, reports, and dashboards - with role-based access control, security groups, multi-currency support, custom modules and fields via Studio, workflow automation, a built-in scheduler for background jobs, and email-to-record handling. SuiteCRM connects to any standard SMTP relay (Amazon SES, SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun, or self-hosted Postfix), reads inbound mail over IMAP, supports SSO via OAuth2 and LDAP, and exposes a V8 REST API for integrations. This image ships the AGPL-3.0 edition and runs entirely on the EC2 instance you launch - no external account, subscription, license key, or activation handshake is required. All data stays inside your own AWS account.

What the Lynxroute image adds

Security hardening:

  • Per-instance SuiteCRM admin password generated on first launch and written to /root/suitecrm-credentials.txt (mode 0600) - never baked into the image
  • Silent install runs once on first launch and is then disabled - no setup wizard exposed on the public internet
  • MySQL 8.0 listens on 127.0.0.1 only; the database user password is generated per instance
  • PHP-FPM workers and MySQL InnoDB buffer pool auto-sized to the instance RAM at launch
  • Background scheduler runs automatically as a managed system service - no manual cron setup
  • Session handling tuned for cloud networking, so users are not logged out behind proxies or changing client IP addresses
  • Self-signed TLS certificate generated during the image build - HTTPS on TCP 443 from launch, HTTP on TCP 80 redirects to HTTPS
  • UFW firewall pre-configured - only TCP 22 and 443 are exposed
  • fail2ban with default SSH jail; AppArmor with default Ubuntu profiles
  • CVE scan - every image is scanned for vulnerabilities before release

OS hardening (CIS Level 1):

  • CIS Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Level 1 benchmark applied via ansible-lockdown
  • auditd, SSH hardening, kernel hardening, IMDSv2 enforced

Compliance artifacts:

  • SBOM - CycloneDX 1.6 at /etc/lynxroute/sbom.json
  • CIS Conformance Report at /etc/lynxroute/cis-report.html
  • CIS Tailored Profile at /usr/share/doc/lynxroute/CIS_TAILORED_PROFILE.md
