Learn all about my Mentoring program: Server and Web Site Security:
1. Firewall the crap out of your server. Lockdown all ports except what is absolutely required: 80
2. Minimized database access points - obfuscate WHERE the database is accessed.
3. Be sure ALL SQL statements are cleaned. SQL injection protection.
4. Have very clean, modular, fined-grained code - much harder to hack.
5. Have ACTIVE firewall rules to prevent multiple attacks - a good firewall application should have that ability.
6. Have ACTIVE rules (and processes) in your app’s code to block multiple attempts.
7. Make it policy that users have to use hard-to-crack user passwords, and if possible, user names. For example, the administrative should NOT have user name: ‘admin’ or ‘administrator’!
8. If it makes sense, use 2-factor authentication.
9. All connections under SSL.
10. Use managed servers who spend all their time managing and patching servers.
