Secure LAMP server for production use
- by WalterJ89
What is the procedure for securing a Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP Server (or even Perl) for production use?
Other than setting the MySql password and the root password for linux what other (maybe not so obvious) steps should be taken?
Also what steps can I take if I was going to be extra paranoid that may not normally be nessasary?
this is for a basic single site use but must be secure.
Thank you. (sorry if this was asked before)
