Hi,
I am using Debian and the recently I learned that a standard Debian
installation allows all 3 types of traffics especially incoming by
default. I know I can easily use iptables to tighten the rules but I
wanted to know the reasons behind the choice of this default behaviour
and if it makes the system more vulnerable? I tried searching on the
Internet but did not get any satisfactory explanation. It will be
helpful if anybody knows the answers to my questions or can redirect me
to a helpful document.
Thanks,
Subhadip
