Kernel
A kernel is the heart of almost every operating system. It is always loaded in memory at any time and deals with the hardware to provide an interface for the software. It also manages peripherals, memory, interrupts, and processes. Examples of widely used kernels include Windows NT and Linux.

ALX Sprint 1 project - Simple Shell: The shell is a program that takes the command inputs written from the the user’s keyboard and passes them to the machine to execute them through the kernel. It also verifies if the command inputs from the user are correct. So, in general, a shell is a user interface to use the services of a computer.

The core idea behind kernel hardening is this: we will never be able to get all of the security bugs out of our code, especially when we're dealing with a large and fast-moving program like the kernel. Beyond that, even when we fix security bugs, those fixes don't get out to the affected users; think of all the Android devices with no security.
