2. Generate Public Keys to to log into SSH (they keys must be generated for your local computer)

3. Use only SSH protacal 2

4. disable password log in for SSH (note: step 3 above must be installed and working or you will lock your self out)
a. if you connect via different computers or many other users have access to the keys this option may nor be for you

5. Install a Firewall (This is set up by default by us on managed servers with the standard ports open and configured to your control panel if installed)

6. Install a Brute Force detector to protect from password hacks ( this is is installed by default by us on managed servers IFD for cpanel & DirectAdmin Servers)

7. Mod security for the Apache web server (we will install and install a basic rule set)
