Servers security is often overlooked, even experienced administrators will oftentimes walk away from the keyboard once that service they've been struggling with for the last 10 hours, is up and running! Server owners will many times imagine "Hackers are not after me"! This couldn't be farther from the truth. The Internet is a dangerous place. Hackers are not out to get you, rather almost always, automated scripts and programs are run by thousands of hackers around the globe searching day and night for unpatches services, or misconfigured ones to instantly attack. This means that everyone is a target, and if you don't take steps to pro-actively secure your servers, you will come to regret it!
