What are Some Common Security Threats  to  Linux Hosting Servers

Denial of Service (DoS) Attacks

These attacks aim to overwhelm the server with excessive traffic, causing it to become unavailable to legitimate users.

Brute Force Attacks

Hackers use automated scripts to repeatedly guess passwords until they find the correct one, gaining unauthorized access to the server.

Malware Infections

Malicious software can infect Linux servers, compromising data integrity and stealing sensitive information.

SQL Injection

Attackers exploit vulnerabilities in web applications to execute malicious SQL queries, potentially gaining unauthorized access to databases.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Hackers inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users, allowing them to steal cookies, session tokens, or other sensitive information.

Directory Traversal

Hackers inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users, allowing them to steal cookies, session tokens, or other sensitive information.

Zero-Day Exploits

Vulnerabilities in server software that are not yet patched can be exploited by attackers to gain unauthorized access or disrupt server operations.
