Essential Linux Hardening
BFD - (Brute Force Detection) - Most Linux servers on the Internet are attacked by brute force multiple times each week. BFD detects brute force connections and automatically enters the offending IPs into the firewall to be blocked.
SSH Server Hardening - Locks down and hardens the SSH server. Provides additional protection against brute force attacks.
Firewall Installation - APF (Advanced Policy Firewall) iptables based firewall and anti-dos rule sets.
LES - (Linux Environment Security) - Enforces root-only permissions on system binaries as well as other restrictions on system programs.
/tmp, /var/tmp and /dev/shm Hardening - The /tmp, /var/tmp and /dev/shm directories are the most common cause of security compromises on web hosting servers. Hardening prevents execution of malicious scripts from being launched from these directories.
Disable Unused Services/Software - Unused services and software are disabled to prevent them from being exploited.
Advanced Linux Hardening Everything in the Essential Linux Hardening Mod-Evasive - Blocks HTTP Denial of Service attacks.
IM - (System Integrity Monitor) - Automatically monitors and restarts required services including HTTP, FTP, DNS, SSH, and MYSQL.
LSM (Linux Socket Monitor) - Identifies and alerts you when rogue services are started on your server.
SPRI - (System Priority) - Sets the priority to current processes being run on your server, decreasing load 5-25%.
PSAD - Detects port scan attacks and and automatically enters the offending IPs into the firewall to be blocked.
CHKRootKIt - Simple script that detects software used by hackers. It scans once a day and emails the client if any suspicious scripts are found.
