How to protect your server
The use of dedicated server is a good idea but to achieve the best results it must be well protected. Let us see how to achieve this.
1. Change the SSH listening port from standard
Standard listening port for SSH is 22 and it is a good idea to change it to something more obvious. It will allow to get rid of the automatic attacks.
2. Use the protected connection for your administration tasks
Always use TLS protocol to establish connection between your computer and server. It will allow to encode data and give hackers no chance to steal it.
3. Update your software regularly
It may seem obvious but not all people apply software updates. Timely updates, however, remove vulnerabilities and therefore leaves no chance for hackers to penetrate to your server.
4. Pay attention to your login details
Often people use some word or even date as a password, but it is a very bad idea. Stop this practice and use the secure password. Don't forget to store it in a reliable place and change it from time to time.
