Description
Base chain policy is the default verdict that will be applied to packets reaching the end of
the chain. There are two policies: accept (Default) and drop. If the policy is set to accept,
the firewall will accept any packet that is not configured to be denied and the packet will
continue traversing the network stack.

Run the following commands and verify that base chains contain a policy of DROP.
$ nft list ruleset | grep 'hook input'
type filter hook input priority 0; policy drop;
$ nft list ruleset | grep 'hook forward'
type filter hook forward priority 0; policy drop;
$ nft list ruleset | grep 'hook output'
type filter hook output priority 0; policy drop;
Rationale
It is easier to allow acceptable usage than to block unacceptable usage.
Warning
Changing firewall settings while connected over network can result in being locked out
of the system.
