## About Project
|
||
|
||
**The Practical Linux Hardening Guide** provides a high-level overview of hardening GNU/Linux systems. It is not an official standard or handbook but it _touches_ and _uses_ industry standards.
|
||
|
||
This guide also provides you with _practical step-by-step instructions_ for building your own hardened systems and services. One of the main goals is to create a single document covering _internal_ and _external_ threats.
|
||
|
||
This guide use following [OpenSCAP](https://www.open-scap.org/) configurations:
|
||
|
||
- [U.S. Government Commercial Cloud Services (C2S) baseline inspired by CIS v2.1.1](https://static.open-scap.org/ssg-guides/ssg-rhel7-guide-C2S.html)
|
||
|
||
> C2S for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 v0.1.43.
|
||
|
||
- [Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG)](https://www.stigviewer.com/stig/red_hat_enterprise_linux_7/)
|
||
|
||
> The requirements are derived from the (NIST) 800-53 and related documents
|
||
