I will setup, configure, and secure your linux vps or cloud server
About this Gig
A poorly configured VPS exposes your infrastructure to brute-force attacks, resource exhaustion, and critical downtime. I build rock-solid, production-ready Linux server environments engineered for high performance and tight security.
What I deliver: Initial OS installation and base configuration (Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky) Control panel deployment: aaPanel, cPanel/WHM, DirectAdmin, CyberPanel, or Plesk Web stack deployment and fine-tuning: Nginx, Apache, OpenLiteSpeed, PHP-FPM, MariaDB/MySQL Complete server-level security hardening:
- Custom SSH port, disabled root login, and SSH key authentication
- UFW / IPTables firewall rules configuration
- Fail2ban integration against brute-force attacks
- Process isolation, sysctl network tuning, and permission auditing Free Let's Encrypt Wildcard / Auto-renewing SSL certificates Cron jobs, log rotation, and automated local/remote backup routines
Supported Cloud Providers: Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS, Linode/Akamai, Vultr, Contabo, OVH, and dedicated physical boxes.

FAQ
Which Linux distributions do you support?
Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, and CentOS Stream. I recommend Ubuntu LTS or AlmaLinux for most production web servers.
Can you work with headless servers without a control panel?
Yes. I frequently deploy pure CLI environments running optimized Nginx reverse proxies, Docker stacks, or direct LEMP stacks without the overhead of a control panel.
What credentials do I need to supply?
You only need to provide the clean server IP and the initial root password (or temporary SSH key) provided by your hosting company. You can revoke or change credentials immediately after completion.
Will you migrate my existing sites to the new server?
Migration is not included in the standard setup packages, but I offer seamless site and database migrations as a custom offer or add-on.
