Gentoo Linux to Hardened

[Albion]

Good hello, all,

I am interested in securing my Linux box and wanted to know the differences between 'normal' Gentoo and Hardened Gentoo. I know I could have installed the Hardened version but wanted to start with the basic version first and harden it myself. I've looked in the manual but have not seen a list of differences between the two so I can't hand roll the hardened version myself, yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

A.
