Make your server more secure by:

1.Consider disabling the root account via SSH and setting up both password and SSL verification

2.Setup a new account with sudo access to super user

3.change the SSH port from standard port 22

If you own Linux/Unix servers, where do you watch out regularly?
This is the starting point of my discussion. Here you go …

Watch /var/log/messages, /var/log/secure, and root emails!

Review my pages on Hackers and use the script to block the intruders.

    You can physically look at all the files or make a cronjob that will watch out entries. You can get email forwarding etc.
