Hi everybody,

I am hosting a Django website with a postgres database on here and was wondering what measures i could take in terms of server hardening? I assume most of the work is already done by the server providers (pythonanywhere), like fail2ban, closing ports etc. Is this true? And if so, is there anything I should probably do?

Thanks in advance!

You'll find general remarks on security on this help page.

Great, thanks!

Just to touch on the specific things you mentioned: yes, we do have fail2ban running and we only have the necessary ports for serving your site and our own sysadmin stuff open.
