10 practical tips for securing your Linux Mint system
www.fosslinux.com
While Linux Mint is known for its security features, it is not immune to threats, including malware, viruses, and hackers. It is essential to secure your Linux Mint system to protect critical, personal, and sensitive information from unauthorized access or theft.

Windows refugee here. I’m planning to move to Linux Mint but want to make sure I don’t do something stupid, as I’m unfamiliar with the Linux operating system.

I found this link with 10 tips to secure Mint.

Is this a good list? Anything else I should do to secure a Mint install?

Thanks for helping a noob!

    The only way I know to harden Linux Mint is using the Debian edition. Using LMDE, you can (unofficial) use Kicksecure to harden the base system. This isnt a great solution since the Linux Mint software is untested with Kicksecure and may/will reduce the security of the overall hardening.
