# Fend

An Electron application with React and TypeScript that can be used to Harden Ubuntu based Operating Systems

## What is Hardening ?



Hardening is a collection of tools, techniques, and best practices to reduce vulnerability in applications. The goal of hardening is to reduce security risk by eliminating and condensing the attack surface of a system.



The goals of hardening are :



 Remove functionality that isn't needed for the user-role 

 Patch and update promptly 

 Maintain secure config settings
