SYNOPSIS

10

DESCRIPTION

12       This program enables you to improve the security of your MySQL
13       installation in the following ways:
14
15       ·   You can set a password for root accounts.
16
17       ·   You can remove root accounts that are accessible from outside the
18           local host.
19
20       ·   You can remove anonymous-user accounts.
21
22       ·   You can remove the test database (which by default can be accessed
23           by all users, even anonymous users), and privileges that permit
24           anyone to access databases with names that start with test_.
25
26       mysql_secure_installation helps you implement security recommendations
27       similar to those described at Section 2.12.2, “Securing the Initial
28       MySQL Accounts”.
