    Hardening a server is not the same thing as running vulnerable operating systems.

      According to NIST it is:

      A process intended to eliminate a means of attack by patching vulnerabilities and turning off nonessential services..

      You have to harden servers because they’re vulnerable.

        That’s because of the function of a server running those services. A desktop isn’t running services.

          Desktops absolutely run services that can be vulnerable.
