Systems - Media Server - Secure the Server - Disable core dump

Core dumps can contain information that an attacker might be able to exploit and they take up a large amount of disk space.

To prevent the system creating core dumps when the operating system terminates a program due to a segment violation or other unexpected error, add the following line to /etc/security/limits.conf:

/etc/security/limits.conf
...
*  hard  core  0
