    I know this is a joke but for anyone reading: Linux has many advantages and is great but is NOT immune to viruses or exploits.

        That isn’t true at all.

          I think desktop Linux was implied. You don’t browse porn from servers. Mostly.

          Hardening a server is not the same thing as running vulnerable operating systems.

            According to NIST it is:

            A process intended to eliminate a means of attack by patching vulnerabilities and turning off nonessential services..

            You have to harden servers because they’re vulnerable.

              That’s because of the function of a server running those services. A desktop isn’t running services.
