  • Systemd offers directives to restrict service access to files, syscalls, or the network, enhancing security.
  • Hardening a systemd service is an iterative process involving adding directives, reloading, restarting, and verifying the service.
  • The command 'systemd-analyze security <service-name>' provides a security score, indicating the effectiveness of applied directives.
  • Hardening services prevents compromised services from becoming gateways for attackers, offering filesystem, network isolation, and system call filtering.
