Hi All,
What tips does everyone have on hardening a CenOS Server that is running web, e-mail, ssh, ftp, mysql, coldfusion and will be processing payments from www?
NSA hardening guidelines would be a good start. The CIS hardening guidelines would be also good. After that you want to look at specific hardening guidelines for apache
Also using Xen to build out a CentOS guest PV host for the separate functions while hardening the main dom0 host to the teeth would allow you to zone the risks between the virtual hosts.
