+# Part 6 - Application
+
+## Abstract
+
+**Application Hardening**: Best practices to apply to the build and release of
+user space applications, in order to reduce the number of attack surfaces used
+by potential attackers.
+
+The term of Application (App) has a very wide definition in **AGL**. Almost
+anything which is not in the core Operating System (OS) is an Application.
+Applications can be included in the base software package (image) or can be
+added at run-time.
