AIXpert setting of High is intended for Internet facing servers. more common is that in data centre, firewall protected servers will use the medium setting.
You need to watch with medium as it by default will disable both NFS and NTP, so you should always review the entire content of the XML files before you apply them to existing live systems.

hardened-ld
HARDENED-LD(1) Debian GNU/Linux HARDENED-LD(1)
NAME
hardened-ld - linker wrapper to enforce hardening toolchain improvements
SYNOPSIS
export DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1
ld ...
DESCRIPTION
The hardened-ld wrapper is normally used by calling ld as usual with DEB_BUILD_HARDENING set to 1. It will configure the necessary
toolchain hardening features. By default, all features are enabled. If a given feature does not work correctly and needs to be disabled,
the corresponding environment variables mentioned below can be set to 0.
ENVIRONMENT
DEB_BUILD_HARDENING=1
Enable hardening features.
DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_DEBUG=1
Print the full resulting gcc command line to STDERR before calling gcc.
DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_RELRO=0
Don't mark ELF sections read-only after start. See README.Debian for details.
DEB_BUILD_HARDENING_BINDNOW=0
Don't mark ELF loader for start-up dynamic resolution. See README.Debian for details.
NOTES
System-wide settings can be added to /etc/hardening-wrapper.conf, one per line.
The real ld is renamed ld.real, and a diversion is registered with dpkg-divert(1). Thus hardened-ld's idea of the default ld is dictated
by whatever package installed /usr/bin/ld.
