Apache conf files and security
Hi Use OS 6.10.4 on a Readynas Pro2. Using the NAS for websites, installed Mysql, PHPAdmin, and PHP 7.4. The OS installed the Apache server
I see in my Apache Error log that there are many visitors from China, USA, etc that are trying to install harmfull software.
I use the standard apache2.conf that OS 6.10.4 installed
I am using this in my private conf file for my sites, here is an example:
DocumentRoot /xx/xx/xx/xx
ServerName xxxx.yyyy.com
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
<Directory "/xx/xx/xx/xx/">
IndexOptions +FancyIndexing NameWidth=*
Options Includes FollowSymLinks Indexes ExecCGI
AllowOverride
All Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Is there something I can put in the apache2.conf file for security?
In my Virtual host file, is there something I should correct, delete or change?
Regards Paal
