Source Five ways to help secure Apache on Linux

Apache is one of the most popular web servers available. And most Apache installations are running on Linux servers. Anyone running Linux will tell you that the operating system (be it on a server or desktop) enjoys a level of security many operating systems do not enjoy. But does that mean you can just install Apache and assume it 100% safe? No. There are always ways to improve your security on just about every level.
In this article I will show you five simple ways to make your Linux Apache installation more secure. And of course you should always know that even with five new means of making your install more secure, that doesn't mean it is perfectly safe from attack. Even after securing your installation, you should always keep watch over your server by checking log files and using standard security tools.
With that said, let's get our Apache security on!
