Go4hosting will ensure your website has the maximum security if you are purchasing a managed VPS hosting from them. In case you are opting for self-managed hosting, you must take the following steps to secure your VPS. 1. Audit: Run an audit of your VPS. You must know what is running and what are the vulnerable points. There are several tools available or you can ask Go4hosting support team for assistance. Scrutinize the applications running on your server. Keep only those applications which you find necessary and shut down the others. 2. Updates: Make sure you keep your server up-to-date. It is important as normally, the new versions come with latest security patches. Take data backups frequently. 3. Secure your SSH configuration: SSH is generally considered to be the main target of the hackers. It must be running all the time for your server to run. • Prevent users root access if they use SSH for login, • change the SSH configuration from port 22, • restrict login to few users in a group, • install intrusion detection software 4. Scans: Regularly check your machine with anti-virus and anti-malware scans. Get the services of a D-DoS protection provider. You can always rely on your provider to advice you for the best VPS hosting solutions and tools. |
