Ensure X Window System is not installed

MoyenneNiveau 1Revue manuellecos

Description

The X Window System provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) where users can have multiple windows in which to run programs and various add on. The X Windows system is typically used on workstations where users login, but not on servers where users typically do not login. Unless your organization specifically requires graphical login access via X Windows, remove it to reduce the potential attack surface.
