Re: Linux Hardening



Hello JV,

There are many papers out on internet which guides you for hardening
Linux in general. You can note down points which you feel are
applicable for your installed Linux OS and accordingly write a shell
script which would do the same.

UNIX/Linux Shell scripting is most powerful, easy and handy way for
tunning UNIX/Linux OS.

Hi,


I was looking for a Linux hardening tool. I found Bastille. The latest = version that I was able to find is 3.09. I cannot seem to get this = version to work on later versions of Linux (RHEL 5, FC 6,7) = distributions.


Is this tool still being supported? Is there a similar tool out there?


Thanks in advance,

JP
