Apache Security

Apache can be made secure through several layers of security.

  • IPTables can limit access to the system
  • Apache Configuration ptions can limit access to users, groups and hosts
  • Secure Apache Websites Encrypt Communication
  • SELinux can limit can Limit Damage should there be a problem

The webserver uses ports 70 and 443 by default. These must be open in the firewall to allow communication. These can be configured as trusted services.

Of course if you use non-standard ports these must be manually opened in IPtables.
