• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Digital Oceans + CentOS + Plesk, what else to implement?

VPSNewb

New Pleskian
Hello Plesk Users,

I want to learn and engage in VPS servers and I was wondering since PLESK installs fail2ban, modsecurity and has auto updates.
Do I need manually need to do anything for my CentOS server in terms of server security? Or does Plesk do all the updates and security?

Also do plesk updates cause wordpress sites to break/not function? Is it better to wait and then update?

Thank you so much :)
 
Plesk itself takes care of all the necessary updates. Also, in Plesk settings, you can independently choose the automatic or manual installation of updates. All updates will be installed correctly and safely if you don't do any customisations like third-party repositories, mirrors, and so on.
