• How to use efficiently IPSET with CSF Firewall

  In this post we will discuss how to use efficiently IPSET with CSF (ConfigServer Security & Firewall) Firewall. Unfortunately, I will not discuss what CSF is because it's not within the scope, but you can read about it here. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• cPanel license add-ons - worth it?

  At the very least, the free ConfigServer CSF is a more robust firewall addon that blocks brute force attempts, mod security failures, and so on. It's relatively easy to install, has a ton of options, and it's easy to whitelist IPs if your users have trouble. The same dev has a virus & malware scanner that's available as a one-time purchase.

• Hetzner would be the best host

  Use CSF (linux only) to cut down some basic attacks https://configserver.com/configserver-security-and-firewall/. Source: over 1 year ago

• What should I be doing as the sole sysadmin for a company to keep up with security?

  Personally, I was lucky enough to get a license to Nessus for my own scanning, however you can use OpenVAS for some free to scan. Scanners aren't 100% correct no matter where you go but it'll give you some things to look at. OpenVAS. Source: about 2 years ago

• Wanting to protect my own homelab

  Https://openvas.org/ OpenVAS is free and fairly capable. It might struggle cpu on a pi... Might need quite a bit of ram, but I'm hoping you've got some beefier kit in your stack. Source: about 2 years ago

• Free nessus equivalent?

  Maybe OpenVAS would fill the bill. It’s been on my list of things to check out. Source: over 2 years ago

• Internal Vulnerability Scanning

  OpenVAS - https://openvas.org Try it first, its free, just download a prebuilt VM and you're off and running. I found it valuable for my clients. Source: almost 3 years ago
