For Linux, a good starting point is a hardening guide by NSA:
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/hardening-rhel5.pdf
Although it covers RHEL specifically, many points apply to other
distributions too.
I'd then also look at checklist provided by SANS Institute:
http://www.sans.org/score/checklists/linuxchecklist.pdf
Guide to General Server Security from NIST is also worth mentioning:
http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-123/SP800-123.pdf
These are a good starting point, not an exhaustive material on the
subject matter.
There are some good books that cover this; search your library.

Hi all,
I started to work of focusing on linux system level security. Mostof the servers are providing web services.
Although I have been working on application pen testing, I havelittle experience to handle with security issues of system or OSitself.
Could you recommend where I should start for it?
(useful books, web sites, or concepts/terminology I have tounderstand)
Any advice would be highly appreciated.
