If you run a small blog, you might think that a secure password or 2-factor authentication is not that important. However, this is a fallacy: even a blog a little only a few dozen accesses per day is sufficiently in the focus of the "hackers" that there are several login attempts per day. By means of

If you want to store as little data as possible for data protection reasons - DSGVO is the keyword - you can define an appropriate log file format. In this way, both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are made anonymous.

If you do not want to maintain your own server and keep it up to date, you can choose a Managed vServer. More and more private individuals and companies are turning to such a solution. This is a service where an external company provides the capacity for a virtual server
