Background: 15 years of experience in software and apparently spoiled because it was already set up correctly.
Been practicing doing my own servers, published a test site and 24 hours later, root was compromised.
Rolled back to the backup before I made it public and now I have a security checklist.
Ah fair enough, I know that’s the basis of a ton of distros. I lean towards RHEL so I’m not super fluent there.
