The Linux Security Workgroup has put together this page in an effort to bring the Linux security community together in hardening the Linux Kernel and to help prevent duplication of efforts. There are a number of active Linux Kernel hardening projects and this page gives details on some of them. If you have an update for this page, please email the kernel-hardening mailing list at kernel-hardening@lists.openwall.com.
