Is there some sort of comprehensive guide on hardening RHEL clones like Alma and Rocky?
I have read Madaidan’s blog, and I plan to go through CIS policies, Alma and Rocky documentation and other general stuff like KSPP, musl, LibreSSL, hardened_malloc etc.
But I feel like this is not enough and I will likely face problems that I cannot solve. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel by myself, I thought I’d ask if anyone has done this before so I can use their guide as a baseline. Maybe there’s a community guide on hardening either of these two? I’d contribute to its maintenance if there is one.
Thanks.
Madaidan’s Insecurities hasn’t been updated in a few years, so some of the information is a bit out of date. It is still decent information, but don’t follow it granularly. What you may be looking for instead is secureblue, which essentially does what you are describing but for Fedora Atomic desktops.
From secure blue’s website:
Why do they say that? What limitations does Linux have in terms of security?
Thank you for that. Yes, I only really follow his post roughly.
Unfortunately, I don’t think secureblue is going to be a possible choice. I like the secureblue project, I think it’s awesome but what I’m working with will likely only come with a Rocky/AlmaLinux base.
