14       This program enables you to improve the security of your MariaDB

16
17       •   You can set a password for root accounts.
18
19       •   You can remove root accounts that are accessible from outside the
20           local host.
21
22       •   You can remove anonymous-user accounts.
23
24       •   You can remove the test database, which by default can be accessed
25           by anonymous users.
