Well I just got my self a new server and I have just finished installing cpanel and CSF, I am wondering what else should I have for security? Thanks
As Tearabite said, there are a million things you can do to make your server more secure. Install mod_security Install rkhunter/chmodkit and set up cron jobs for them Install the cPanel clamav connector Disable telnet Change your SSH port and consider using SSH keys instead of password authentication. Disable direct root login in SSH Disable dangerous functions from PHP Install suPHP / Suhosin There's a few more for you to think about.
Hi, We can optimize your server and secure it completely within 1 day. After that, you will receive a complete detailed report explaining all the operations that we made. The price is $49 one time payment. Please send a PM if you are interested. Thanks
Check the site platinumservermanagement.com a complete list of what to be done for a server initially is there you can try them
below are all correct and useful security tools in addition i scan server using nessus - with ALL security SW disabled ! and also have snort running as daemon further I keep my site simple and avoid fancy stuff / fancy SW that keeps my fairly good sleeping - with at least half a dozen hack attempts per day and quantities of basic hacker stuff all being swallowed ( and logged ) each DAY by a.m. security SW.
They are pretty good. I know someone who has their server managed by them and are having no problems at all.
