Tony first time watcher thanks for the info. I've been struggling a lot with this but it turns out on 24.04 there is an issue related to python as of now may 2024. Switched to 2202 and it worked fine and I completed your example.
There are extra filters for Apache, which is part of the WordPress stack. You can research those to get what you're looking for, as Apache seems to have more filters than any of the other server types or frameworks. I used the Nginx filter to help on the front end of my site. Works great. Since I followed Tony's SSH hardening tutorial I don't even need fail2ban for SSH anymore. It is just there in case I let passwords be used again.
Can you please make one tutorial on how to install Mod Security and/or any other security features in Hestia and CloudPanel? My WordPress sites are getting malware-affected & file permissions are being changed every alternative day. Btw your channel is very helpful. I found so much info in your videos. Thanks a lot for everything.
Hi I have 10 websites on Ubuntu LAMP + VestaCP If one of my websites was infected than how can I protect other websites from my infected website ? How to be sure that virus code will stay only in one directory website and will not infect other websites located in the same home directory. Thank you
There is no way to ensure that the virus will not crawl to another directory on your server. I don't have an exact answer for you. I would suggest to talk to an expert in this case
to make your ssh server really secure. ssh key max bits, long password for it. tor onion service. ban direct root login and have to use username. change port use fail2ban and use 2fa your unhackable and update your server automatically.
Not a tutorial on fail2ban. Simply a tutorial on how to use apt to install a package. A demonstration of the default settings is not a tutorial. Useless to anyone actually wanting to use the software. Please delete.
Hi Tony, can you please provide tutorial how to set fail2ban+cloudflare? So when people hit many urls on our website and got some 404, they will banned automatically (by ip) from cloudflare ip access rules (with API). I got the tutorial on here youtube(dot)com/watch?v=Ha8NIAOsNvo, but i can't understand it well because he's using nginx proxy manager. I think it will be very great tutorial if you explain more details with no panel. Thanks
