    Hi,

    The security is a situation task and varies from server to server depending on what it is hosting and in what condition the hosted applications are on the server.

    Basically, the cPanel security is divided into 2 Parts.
    1. Basic. This includes securing the WHM and install plugins.
    2. Core. This includes core functionality of the web application and server service security at the OS level.


    Basic:
    1. Install firewall and scanners for protection.
    2. Check the firewall security checklist.
    3. Enable Brute-Force Protection.
    4. The Security Advisory.
    5. The Tweak Settings.
    6. Always Get the Latest cPanel Updates.
    7. Defining security policies.
    8. Modsecurity Installation.


    Core:
    1. Securing OS.
    2. Securing SSH.
    3. Securing Exim.
    4. Securing FTP.
    5. Securing Apache.
    6. Securing PHP.
    7. Securing DNS.

    A professional system administrator has to explore areas on the server that not secure and secure it based on his analysis.. The auditing is time consuming process and has to be done correct to get good result..
