How Do Webservers Stay Safe From Hackers?

• http-observatory

  33 1,816 8.0 Python

  Mozilla HTTP Observatory

  

This is a good guide to start, and has advanced options near the bottom such as Modsecurity: https://geekflare.com/apache-web-server-hardening-security/ This is good for advanced hardening if you want to go far with HTTP headers and browser-site behavior: https://observatory.mozilla.org/ This is an amazing tool for testing SSL suites and for SSL vulnerabilities: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/

• Caddy

  402 53,718 9.5 Go

  Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS

  

I've started to use a web server called caddy. You should check it out; it's awesome. Configuration is so much simpler, and it has a lot of other advantages also! Built-in lets-encrypt handling -- you don't even have to do anything (other than setup DNS "A" and/or "AAAA" record!)
