Re: Linux Hardening

what is the machine's location on your network (LAN\DMZ etc...) what is 
the machine role, you should ask yourself some questions before 
approaching hardening, I would not put the same effort on a machine 
which is located on my LAN as much as I would make sure that DMZ 
machines are protected, same goes for a web server which usually has a 
lot of active processes on it and a DNS server or an FTP server which 
are in most cases relatively less vulnerable.

there are a lot of tools , but one may perform some basic  actions to 
make sure the machine is protected enough in regards to what it does and 
where it is located.
