Hi!
I'm hoping you have some pointers about how to secure / harden CentOS 7. I can only find huge articles with hundreds of systems and although I like security a lot, I find it hard to believe you should implement them all ;-)
Examples:
https://highon.coffee/blog/security-harden-centos-7/
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-security-4/security-references-45261/
So the firewalld firewall is active, SELinux is enforcing, SSH is pretty secure I think (no root access, different port, etc.)... how to go from there? I've been looking at these articles, installed and tested Rootkit Hunter, Linux Malware Detect, ClamAV and have been looking at Tripwire, Fail2Ban and others.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
