All servers on the Internet are constantly at risk from remote intruders.
Software default configurations, kernel and operating system versions,
as well as which applications are running by default can all leave a door
open to intrusion. It's
a good idea to make sure your server has all the latest versions of
software you plan to use, and disable/turn off all software applications
you don't need to minimize the risk of problems.
TurnKey Internet offers the low cost option to "harden" your
server's security foot print, best selected at the time you order
your new server. TurnKey Internet will set up your new server any way you
want (including custom configurations, software applications, and initial
web site configuration). TurnKey Internet will then perform:
Firewall Setup - TurnKey will install and configure the integrated Firewall
system to protect your server from unauthorized connections, as well as hacker and denial of service
attacks.
Operating System Upgrade - TurnKey will apply all patches,
service packs, and upgrade your Linux Kernel or Microsoft Windows Server
operating system to the latest stable release, closing security
vulnerabilities.
System Hardening - TurnKey will harden your server
including Noexec, Nosuid temporary directories, securing of /tmp shared
directory.
Application Upgrades - TurnKey will upgrade all pre-installed
software such as the Apache web server, mail server, and PHP/PERL system.
We upgrade all your pre-installed software to the latest stable version
released by your OS/software vendor.
Security Audit - TurnKey will ensure your server is safe and secure as
well as assess its possible vulnerabilities by installing RkHunter to
check for trojans, rootkits, and other security problems.
Remote Access Enhancements - TurnKey will modify your remote
access footprint (SSH or Remote Desktop) and limit logins for your
security.
Turn Off Insecure Services - TurnKey will deactivate all unused
and insecure applications and services. In addition to removing unneeded
security holes, this process will further boost speed and responsiveness of
your server by saving memory and CPU resources.
