    Default Dedicated server security service?

    Within the last few weeks someone here recommended a service for around $100-200 they would take a good look at your server and check for vunerabilities, etc. I've searched and searched but can't find the original post, could anyone point me in the right direction?

    While this isn't a service I've offered on here, it's one I do/have offered elsewhere though I charge $250 per server.

    If you're paying for a dedicated server, you shouldn't need to hire out this service. Just my opinion.

    While I most definitely agree that this should be included when you're renting a dedi, there are a few companies (big name ones too) that do not offer managed dedicated servers and as such leave that up to the person renting them. Typically an unmanaged runs way cheaper in price than a managed which is why this stuff isn't included.

    But again, I definitely agree it should be included.

    I agree, in an ideal world I should be able to trust everything that should be done is being done, but in reality I can't really be sure until something bad happens and I haven't got the time (or inclination) to learn all the intricacies of securing a server. This server is going to be housing a lot of personal data so I want to be absolutely sure I'm doing my utmost to keep that data private & secure. Sometimes it pays to be paranoid

    Still haven't found that original recommendation btw. They offered a number of services I would be interested in, just wish I'd bookmarked it.
