How to Secure a Linux Server Centos

How to Secure a Linux Server.
1. Kernel recompile with GR security
2. firewall = CSF
3. Stop unnecessary processes
4. Install Logcheck
5. Install Logwatch 
Optimizing host.conf and sysctl.conf
   http://www.eth0.us/node/104
To modify LogWatch, SSH into server and login as root. At command prompt type: pico -w /etc/log.d/conf/logwatch.conf
Scroll down to
MailTo = root
and change to
Mailto = your@email.com
Note: Set the e-mail address to an offsite account incase you get hacked.
Now scroll down to
Detail = Low
Change that to Medium, or High...
Detail = 5 or Detail = 10
Note: High will give you more detailed logs with all actions. Save and exit.
6. If cpanel server then WHM configuration check
7. OpenSSH configuration check
8. Switch from proftpd to pure-ftpd
9. Rootkit Hunter
rkhunter:
1. Login to your server via SSH as root. Then Type: cd /usr/local/src/
2. Download RKHunter Version 1.1.4
Type: wget http://downloads.rootkit.nl/rkhunter-1.1.4.tar.gz
3. Extract files
Type: tar -xzvf rkhunter-1.1.4.tar.gz
4. Type: cd rkhunter
5. Type: ./installer.sh
6. Lets setup RKHunter to e-mail you you daily scan reports.
Type: pico -w /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter.sh
Add The Following:
  1. !/bin/bash
(/usr/local/bin/rkhunter -c --cronjob 2>&1 | mail -s "RKhunter Scan Details" replace-this@with-your-email.com)
Replace the e-mail above with your e-mail!!
It is best to send the e-mail to an e-mail off-site so that
if the box IS compromised the hacker can't erase the scan report unless he hacks another server too.
Type: chmod +x /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter.sh
10. Chkrootkit
Installing chkrootkit 
[root@server ~]# wget >>ftp://ftp.pangeia.com.br/pub/seg/pac/chkrootkit.tar.gz

98.Perform some udp and tcp scan here :
http://www.hackerwatch.org/probe/
This site is not bad too : https://grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
99.Check /var/log/secure , /var/log/messages and other log files of services running to see if there are any issues.
100.Check your box to see if your performance has degraded or if your machine is being over used.
For that, use the commands
vmstat 
Displays information about memory, cpu and disk.
    Ex: bash# vmstat 1 4 (where 1 is delay and 4 is count)
mpstat 
Displays statistics about cpu utilization. This will help us to see if your cpu is over worked or not.
    Ex: bash# mpstat 1 4 (where 1 is delay and 4 is count)
iostat 
This command displays statistics about the disk system.
    Useful options:
    -d - Gives the device utilization report.
    -k - Display statistics in kilobytes per second.
    Ex: bash# iostat -dk 1 4 (where 1 is delay and 4 is count)
sar 
Displays overall system performance.
Check to see if your server has any hidden processes running.
ps 
Displays the status of all known processes.
lsof
101. List all open files. In Linux everything is considered a file, so you will be able to see almost all of the activity on your system with this command. 
chmod -R 700 /etc/rc.d/init.d/*
    Use rpm -Va to find out if an rpm is modified
    * Apply security patches to vulnerable software (ie. patch -p1 < patch file)
    * Remove all unneeded ttys and console logins by removing the entry from /etc/securetty
    * Check system logs (eg: /var/log/messages, /var/log/secure, etc.)
    * Set a password on the boot loader (lilo and grub both support this)
    * Monitor the system (nagios or big brother)
102. Install AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment) is a free
replacement for Tripwire. = http://www.cs.tut.fi/~rammer/aide.html
103. Testing phase when in production.
Use tools like nessus, nikto, and nmap to do a penetration test and see how well your server is secured. Also do a stress test.
find /usr/local/apache/domlogs -exec egrep -iH '(wget|curl|lynx|gcc|perl|sh|cd|mkdir|touch)' {} \;
