Threat actors are continually evolving their tools and strategies to exploit any gaps or loopholes in your cyber security system If they succeed, the damage to your network and data is almost immeasurable Ensuring that your cyber protection architecture and overall ecosystem present as few targets as possible

Most new digital assets, such as servers and operating systems, are unconfigured by default When an asset is installed, all options are activated While most new assets require several software and firmware updates, most aren’t fully updated

PCI DSS, ISO 27001 & HIPAA all such security standards need system hardening as a primary defense against cyber invasions Who needs advanced security measures and defenses if you don’t initially secure all needless doors via which attackers might infiltrate your systems and networks

Continuous hardening increases Resilience
No one is immune to threats The most well-known and common sorts of digital misuse should permanently be hardened IT infrastructures include hundreds of

Tools, techniques, and best practises
Tools, techniques, and best practises can be used to harden technologies such as applications, systems, infrastructure, and firmware In order to minimise the risk of attack

With the rapid rise of cloud computing, traditional in-house application and service deployments have been replaced by virtualization Currently, corporations can save money by renting hardware from companies like Extreme Compute

Hardening a computer system reduces its attack surface This involves deactivating unused services, shutting open network ports, and modifying default settings. The underlying operating systems, databases, network devices

Despite the fact that operating systems like Windows have gotten more secure, they are still vulnerable to attack As a result, organisations must exercise extraordinary caution when it comes to securing

Hardening a Server

It is the process of making a computer more secure The host, application, operating system, physical environment, user, and sublevels are all protected by hardening
