Server security guide
Security questions for your production server
Short answers, correct commands and the Romanian legal context for SSH access, firewalls, updates, backups, HTTPS, WAF, containers and responding to a compromised server.
- Why not leave node_modules and npm on a production server?
- What should I do if my server has been compromised?
- What is a DDoS attack and how do I protect my server from it?
- How do I secure SSH access to a Linux server?
- How do I set up a VPS firewall and which ports should stay open?
- How do I back up a server and test restores (the 3-2-1 rule)?
- How do I install free HTTPS with Let's Encrypt and enable HSTS?
- What is a WAF (Web Application Firewall) and when do I need one?
- How do I keep .env files and API keys out of git in production?
- How do I secure Docker containers in production?
- How do I apply Linux security patches without downtime?
- What are my legal cybersecurity obligations in Romania?
DevOps comparisons
DevOps comparisons: what to choose for your server
Short verdicts and comparison tables for the infrastructure decisions you face: processor, GPU, storage, hosting type, software stack and who operates the server.
Hardware
- Intel vs AMD on a dedicated serverAMD wins on uniform cores and memory width, Intel wins on CPU-side AI through AMX, and the only four-NVMe plan runs on a Xeon.
- RTX PRO 4000 vs RTX PRO 6000The RTX PRO 4000 is comfortable for models up to about 14 billion parameters; the RTX PRO 6000 is what a 70-billion-parameter model needs.
- NVMe vs SATA SSD on a serverNVMe wins for databases, online shops and virtual machines; a SATA SSD stays a fair choice for archives, backups and rarely read files.
- RAID 1 vs RAID 10 on a dedicated serverRAID 1 suits two-drive servers; on four equal drives RAID 10 doubles usable capacity and write speed, with the same protection per pair.
Hosting type
- VPS vs dedicated serverStart on a VPS while load varies and you grow in steps; move to a dedicated server when you need the whole machine, steady IOPS and physical isolation.
- cPanel hosting vs VPScPanel hosting suits WordPress and domain email with no server to run; a VPS is for applications that need root, Docker or processes of their own.
- GPU server vs AI APIAn API wins at low volume and for frontier models; a dedicated GPU server wins at high, steady volume and when data must not leave your control.
DevOps stack
- Docker Compose vs KubernetesRun Docker Compose while everything fits on one server; move to Kubernetes, or its lightweight k3s build, once you need several nodes, failover and autoscaling.
- Nginx vs Apache vs LiteSpeedNginx for reverse proxying and modern applications, Apache for .htaccess compatibility, LiteSpeed for WordPress with server-level page caching.
- Ubuntu vs Debian vs AlmaLinuxUbuntu for the widest ecosystem and commercial support, Debian for lean stability, AlmaLinux for RHEL compatibility and ten years of security updates.
Operations and security
- Managed vs unmanaged serverChoose a managed server if nobody on your team owns operations; choose unmanaged only if your own people already handle patching, backups and incident response.
- Let's Encrypt vs paid SSL certificateFor almost any site Let's Encrypt encrypts just as well, free; pay only for OV or EV validation, a contractual warranty or vendor support.
- GitHub Actions vs GitLab CI/CDIf your code is on GitHub, Actions is the short road; GitLab CI/CD wins when the whole platform must run on your own server in the EU.
