How to fine Tune and Harden the Linux kernel

Hi,

As a a security audit, how can I proceed further with Fine tuning and Hardening the linux kernel... I am not sure with the steps how to proceed further... If i do some thing wrong, then its comes with the Kernel panic error. So, I am afraid, how to do the tuning with the kernel..

One step-at-a-time.

Modify the kernel, test, test, test.....

Always keep a copy of a working kernel (prior version) in your boot config files if you need to boot after a panic.
