Linux Security and Hardening

This course will not only teach you the security concepts and guidelines that will keep your Linux servers safe, it will walk you through hardening measures step-by-step and also teaches how to secure an Enterprise Linux system to comply with security policy requirements. Many security policies and standards require systems administrators to address specific user authentication concerns, application of updates, system auditing and logging, le system integrity, and more. Linux Server Hardening provides strategies for addressing specific policy and configuration concerns

Linux Server Shell Scripting

Shell scripts are an essential part of any modern operating system, such as UNIX, Linux, Windows, and similar. The scripting language or its syntax may vary from OS to OS; but the fundamental principles remain the same. I first encountered Linux Shell scripts during the development of embedded Linux product development. Shell scripts were initializing the complete product from the basic booting procedure until users logged in and a complete operating system was initialized. Another situation was in the automation of regular activities, such as the build and release management of source codes of very complex products, where more than 10,000 files were a part of a single project. Similarly, another very common requirement comes while using the make utility, which is used to compile and build complex product source codes.
