The rsync service can be used to synchronize files between systems over network links.
The rsync service presents a security risk as it uses unencrypted protocols for communication. The rsync package should be removed to reduce the attack area of the system.
Run the following command to verify rsync is not installed:
dpkg -s rsync | grep -E '(Status:|not installed)'
dpkg-query: package 'rsync' is not installed and no information is available
Run the following command to remove rsync:
apt purge rsync
rsync is not installed on minimal server installations.
