+# Gitea Workflow: Shell-Script Linting
+#
+# This workflow scans all '*.sh', '*.zsh', '*.chroot' and all files with Shebang (#!) for:
+# 1. Windows CRLF line endings
+# 2. unauthorized control characters (C0 control characters except \t, \n)
+# 3. non-ASCII (ambiguous UTF) characters
+#
+# Findings are collected and at the end of the run with file, line number,
+# and the respective character in the Runner output.

+### 1.1.3. Gitea Action Runner Hardening
+
+The CI runners operate on a dedicated host system located in a completely separate Autonomous System (AS). This host is solely 
+dedicated to providing CI runners and does not perform any other tasks. Each runner is hermetically isolated from others using 
+non-privileged, shell-less user accounts with no direct login capability. Additionally, each runner executes within its own 
+separate directory tree, employs `DynamicUser` features, and adheres to strict systemd hardening policies (achieving a ``systemd-analyze security`` 
+rating of **``2.6``**). Docker containers used by runners do not run in privileged mode. Security is further enhanced through the use 
+of both UFW software firewalls and dedicated hardware firewall appliances.
