Vps ,what next!!!!!!!
« on: January 10, 2024, 11:37:57 AM »
Hello, I have prepared a vps together with cwp, I followed all the installation and security instructions in general. I did all the updates and in general I am very happy as with the vps I have better speeds etc. Do I need to do something else to have security in the vps beyond the mentioned? I don't want to be without a site all of a sudden!!!!

Make sure the CSF is running.
Use the whitelist and close any ports you won't be using.

Disable PHP Mail, so spammers can't use it.

And just in general keep the system updated.
Including your PHP version to the latest version.

Any questions or problems, come here to the forum and ask.
