If you have purchased an overseas cloud server, if you want to operate normally for a long time and be able to resist attacks, then daily maintenance is also very necessary. How to maintain overseas cloud servers? You can start from the following aspects:
1. Install system patches in time
Whether it is Windows or Linux, any operating system has loopholes. Timely patching to prevent vulnerabilities from being exploited by deliberate attacks is one of the most important guarantees for server security.
2. Install and configure firewall
For server security, it is very necessary to install a firewall. The firewall has a very good preventive effect on illegal access, but the installation of a firewall does not mean that the server is safe. After installing the firewall, you need to properly configure the firewall according to your own network environment to achieve the best protection effect.
3. Install antivirus software
Now the virus on the network is very rampant, which requires installing a network version of anti-virus software on the network server to control the spread of the virus. At the same time, in the use of network anti-virus software, the anti-virus software should be updated regularly or in time, and the virus database should be automatically updated every day.
4. Close unnecessary services and ports
When the server operating system is installed, some unnecessary services will be started, which will occupy system resources and increase system security risks. For servers that will not be used at all for a period of time, they can be completely closed; for servers that will be used during the period, unnecessary services, such as Telnet, should also be closed. In addition, it is necessary to close the TCP ports that are not necessary to open.
5. Regularly back up the server
In order to prevent unexpected system failure or user's careless illegal operation, the system must be backed up safely. In addition to monthly backups of the entire system, weekly backups of modified data should also be performed. At the same time, the modified important system files should be stored on different servers, so that in the event of a system crash (usually a hard disk error), the system can be restored to a normal state in time.
6. Account and password protection
Account and password protection can be said to be the first line of defense of the server system. At present, most attacks on the server system on the Internet start from intercepting or guessing the password. Once a hacker enters the system, the previous defense measures are almost useless, so managing the account number and password of the server system administrator is a very important measure to ensure system security.
7. Monitoring system logs
By running the system log program, the system will record the use of the system by all users, including the latest login time, the account used, and the activities performed. The log program will generate reports regularly, and by analyzing the reports, you can know whether there is any abnormal phenomenon.
