An important concept in cloud security is system and OS hardening, which can aid in reducing software vulnerability and provide data confidentiality and privacy. Hardening protects against exploitation of weaknesses in software, which could be applications, operating systems, or firmware. Vulnerability assessments and using penetration testing to discover issues in code or software can be used to protect the software. In this course, you'll learn about hardening, why it's important to decrease or eliminate security vulnerabilities, and best practices for software and hardware protection.
