The protective base. Built into every image.

Hardened golden images, built and published automatically.

Primcoat is a fully managed VM image factory. Describe the image you want — operating system, hardening policy, software, and destinations — and Primcoat builds it, hardens it, scans it, signs it, and ships it to your cloud.

You bring configuration, not code

No Packer HCL to write. No Ansible playbooks to maintain. No build fleet to babysit. Define the OS, the hardening policy, the software, and the destinations — Primcoat owns everything in between.

The OS you already run

Ubuntu, RHEL, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky, Windows Server. Hardening a golden image should not require migrating to somebody else's base operating system.

Evidence, not assurances

Every build emits a compliance report, a CycloneDX and SPDX SBOM, a CVE scan, a Cosign signature, and SLSA provenance. When an auditor asks what is in the image, you have the answer already.

Every build runs the same pipeline.

Not a registry that tracks images somebody else built. The build itself — hardening, scanning, signing, and publishing included.

One definition. Every destination.

Primcoat builds a single hardened base image, then converts and publishes it to each target — injecting the right guest agent and the right disk format for each one.

Primcoat builds, hardens, scans, signs, and publishes your golden images — on the operating systems you already run.
