Improve systemd service hardening

    Details

    • Sprint:
      1.0.2

      Description

      It would be nice to use more of systemd's hardening features:

      ProtectSystem=full
      		 
      NoNewPrivileges=true
      		 
      PrivateDevices=true
      		 
      ProtectHome=true

      I tested these settings and didn't experience any problems in my (admitted limited) setup. I think they should be fine for anyone except for exceptional and odd situations. For the (very rare) impacted user, they can always override the systemd service - but a secure configuration should be the default.
