Created comprehensive security hardening guide (500+ lines): Defense-in-Depth Strategy: - Layer 1: Fail2Ban auto-banning - Layer 2: SSH key-only authentication - Layer 3: UFW firewall optimization 5-Phase Deployment (1 hour total): - Phase 1: Test SSH key access (CRITICAL - prevents lockout) - Phase 2: Install and configure Fail2Ban (20 min) - Phase 3: SSH hardening (20 min) - Phase 4: UFW firewall review (15 min) - Phase 5: Additional security (automatic updates, AIDE) Security Features: - Fail2Ban monitors SSH, Nginx, bad bots - SSH: Key-only auth, MaxAuthTries=3, rate limiting - UFW: Management IP whitelist, unnecessary ports closed - Automatic security updates - File integrity checking (AIDE) Critical Safety Measures: - Mandatory SSH key testing before disabling passwords - Keep session open while testing - Backup access via console/IPMI - Step-by-step verification at each phase - Comprehensive troubleshooting (lockout recovery) Monitoring & Maintenance: - Daily: Check Fail2Ban bans and auth logs - Weekly: Review UFW logs and security updates - Monthly: AIDE file integrity check Ready to deploy when SSH access available. Risk level: MEDIUM (can lock out if keys not tested) Task: Command Center Security Hardening (Tier 1) FFG-STD-002 compliant
