How can I secure my VPS?

We suggest the following things to secure your VPS:

Disable root login on your SSH service
Disable password auth and enable key based auth on your SSH service
Install and configure fail2ban
Remove unnecessary software
Always keep your software/scripts updated
Do not use outdated Kloxo Panel
Do not use zPanel
Harden your /tmp (Disable software execution on the partition)
If you have static IP or you use a VPN, configure your SSH to only allow login from those IPs.
