Wouldn't putting someone (whose server experience level warrants shared hosting) in charge of a VPS create more security issues?

- bitJericho 10y agoIt's the only way to learn...
- johndoe4589 10y agoWell I can configure a Linux vm for development I guess I could handle that. Wouldn't these VPS come with a sensible default?
- ripdog 10y agoLinux is fairly secure by default, so most of what that admin has to do is just not screw it up. Turn off SSH passwords and disable root login, then read a hardening guide for their particular tech stack. Once it's set up, you just need to log in once in a while to update software. Also backups, if it needed to be said.
