Securing Debian Manual
<br></h1>
<hr>
<h2><a name="abstract"></a>Abstract</h2>
<p>
This document describes security in the Debian project and in the Debian
operating system. Starting with the process of securing and hardening the
default Debian GNU/Linux distribution installation, it also covers some of the
common tasks to set up a secure network environment using Debian GNU/Linux,
gives additional information on the security tools available and talks about
how security is enforced in Debian by the security and audit team.
