Hardened
A profile with most (vanilla) hardening options enabled by default,
potentially at the cost of stability, features and performance.
This includes a hardened kernel, and limiting the system information
available to processes through the /sys and
/proc filesystems. It also disables the User
Namespaces feature of the kernel, which stops Nix from being able to
build anything (this particular setting can be overriden via
security.allowUserNamespaces).
See the
profile
source for further detail on which settings are altered.
This profile enables options that are known to affect system
stability. If you experience any stability issues when using the
profile, try disabling it. If you report an issue and use this
profile, always mention that you do.
