I will harden and secure your ubuntu server with best practices
About this Gig
Are you looking for a professional to secure your Ubuntu VPS or server?
I am a certified Network and System Engineer with over 3 years of experience in both Microsoft and Linux environments. With my brand LAMX, I focus on delivering "use-ready" and secure infrastructures for startups and SMEs.
Don't leave your server vulnerable to brute-force attacks or unauthorized access. I will ensure your Linux environment is hardened according to industry standards.
What I can do for you:
- SSH Hardening: Disabling password login and setting up secure SSH keys.
- Firewall Configuration: Setting up UFW to block unwanted traffic.
- Intrusion Prevention: Installing and configuring Fail2Ban to stop brute-force attacks.
- User Management: Configuring sudo users and proper permissions.
- Security Audit: A full check-up of your current vulnerabilities.
Why choose me?
- Professional Approach: You get the expertise of a system engineer, not a hobbyist.
- Documentation: I provide a brief overview of the changes made.
- Security-First Mindset: Everything I do is focused on protecting your data.
Please contact me before placing an order to discuss your specific requirements!

FAQ
Is it safe to give you access to my server?
Absolutely. Security is my priority. I prefer to work via SSH keys, which is the industry standard for secure access. I will never ask for your root password if it can be avoided. After the project is completed, I will show you how to revoke my access so you remain in full control.
Do I need to have a fresh Ubuntu installation?
Not necessarily, but it is recommended. I can perform a security audit and hardening on existing servers as well. However, please make sure you have a backup of your data before we start, just to be safe.
Will my website or applications go offline during the hardening process?
In 99% of cases: No. I configure the firewall (UFW) and Fail2Ban in the background. If a service restart is required, I will always coordinate a maintenance window with you to ensure zero or minimal impact on your users.
Do you support other Linux distributions like Debian or CentOS?
Yes, I do! While this Gig focuses on Ubuntu, I am also an expert in Debian, AlmaLinux, and Rocky Linux. Please send me a message before ordering so we can discuss the specifics of your distribution.
What do I need to provide to get started?
I will need the IP address of your server and a way to log in (preferably an SSH public key setup). If you are unsure how to do this, don't worry—I will provide a simple step-by-step guide to get us connected securely.
