Hardened systemd config

As security tool, we want to ensure not adding more attack surface than what is prevented/detected.

From early testing, following is working on Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04 and Centos8 with few variations

まず、参照されている templates/systemd-hardening.conf.j2 の設定と SysmonForLinux サービスのセットアップを確認します。記載されている Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 と CentOS 8 のバリエーションを比較し、その後、この設定をリポジトリ内のどこに配置すべきかを判断します。完了条件には、明確に定義された hardening 設定と、記載されたディストリビューション全体での検証を含める必要があります。
