I will harden and secure your linux vps server with an audit report
Ashish Agarwal
About this Gig
Is your VPS still accepting password logins, running without a firewall, or exposing database ports to the whole internet? I'll audit it, lock it down and prove it with a before/after report.
WHAT YOU GET
Read-only security audit: SSH settings, firewall, open ports, Docker port leaks, fail2ban, updates, root accounts, disk and time sync
Standard and Premium: SSH keys only (root and password login off), a firewall that allows only the ports your apps use, fail2ban, automatic security updates and swap if needed
A PDF report with a score and before/after for every check
Premium: Docker and reverse-proxy review, uptime monitoring and a re-audit after 30 days
WHY ME
Safe by design: I confirm which ports your apps use before touching the firewall, and I never switch off password login until your SSH key works, so you can't get locked out
The same tested tooling I run on my own production servers
Works on Ubuntu and Debian at Hetzner, DigitalOcean, OVH, Contabo, Hostinger, AWS Lightsail and more.

FAQ
Will my website or apps go down?
No. I first list every port your apps listen on and keep the ones you use open. SSH changes are tested in a second session before the first one is closed.
How do you get access?
I send my public SSH key; you add it to a sudo user and remove it after delivery. No passwords in chat.
Which systems do you support?
Ubuntu 20.04 to 24.04 and Debian 11 to 12 on any VPS or dedicated server. For other distributions, message me first.
What if I only have a root password?
That's common. I help you add an SSH key and a sudo user first, then switch password login off, so you keep access the whole time.
