Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run.

Are there any security things I should set up or configure after installing Trixie for normal desktop use?

I would assume that Debian ship it in good shape out of the box. Or should I look at things like firewall and apparmor?

Debian is pretty good out of the box but packages like Harden and scanning tools like the package lynis can help you harden Debian further.

While we have people giving input..... Any advice for securing a Debian server used for Docker containers? Using a connected Synology for reverse proxy to access apps.
