FAQ
1. Which Linux distributions do you support?
I specialize in Debian-based distributions like Ubuntu and Debian, as well as RHEL-based systems like AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, and CentOS and Archlinux. If you are using a more niche distro, please message me before ordering to confirm compatibility.
2. Will I still be able to access my server easily?
Yes! Security doesn't have to be inconvenient. I will guide you through setting up SSH Keys, which are much more secure and faster than passwords. You will have full instructions on how to log in after the hardening process is complete.
3. Will this service disrupt my currently running websites or apps?
Safety is my priority. I analyze your current setup before applying firewall rules to ensure that your active services (like Web Servers or Databases) remain fully operational. We will discuss any necessary port openings beforehand.
4. What is the difference between CrowdSec and Fail2Ban?
While Fail2Ban is a classic tool, CrowdSec is a modern, faster alternative that uses a "crowdsourced" database. If an IP attacks someone else's server in the CrowdSec network, it gets blocked on your server automatically before it even touches you.
5. Do you need my root password?
To perform the hardening, I will need root or sudo access. I recommend providing a temporary password, which you should change immediately after I deliver the order. Your security and privacy are my top concerns.
6. Do I need a domain for Pomerium?
Yes, Pomerium works best with a domain or subdomain to provide a clean, identity-based login interface for your private services.
