What you guys use for website protection? We use sentinel one but doesn't cover web related items
Second you want to ensure the os is secure and up to date. Take a look at os hardening best practices, for example this ansible playbook for linux: https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening
- Ansible for automation/ hardening.

How do you document your (whole) setup ? Looking for ideas.
To ensure SSH and other security related things are configured correctly, you can take a look at DevSec which helps you to apply proven security configuration principles. Also there is guides like "Secure Secure Shell" which can help you to better understand what you can do to increase the security of your servers (this one is from 2015 but many aspects are still relevant).

"The site" is actually just their blog. The github repo at https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox is more like the real homepage and has a good presentation.

Locally trained AI Agents for network device discovery
Pre-trained systems dominate AI today (as deep as the P in GPT). My team and I have been researching and building alternatives given how the hallucination, blackbox and other problems don't seem solvable within* the current paradigm.
One of our first applications is a network automation solution for Netbox-- locally trained AI Agents unique to each Netbox account to predict roles of newly added devices given the current local list of devices, like a context-aware autocomplete.
Agents are lightweight by design, this particular Netbox Agent is 40-neuron, and when hooked up demo.netbox.dev and consistently gets 80%+ accuracy predicting device roles even when trained on ~60 devices only.
Try it out: https://aolabs-netbox.streamlit.app/
You can use dummy data from demo.netbox.dev. More on Netbox: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox
We'd keen for feedback, if this is useful, how we could extend it if it is, or if it sparks other application ideas.
* Somebody has to be the pre-trainer, leaving an irreducible gap of misunderstanding between AI and its application which we are trying to diminish by adding a layer of local training.
