For best practices, when the IT department audits the software, one of the observations they say is that on a production site it’s a best practice to change the default ssh port (22) (attemps and logs becomes less)
Switching is relatively easy in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but doing this breaks the Wappler cloud provider because it uses 22 default port.
In Wappler It is possible to change port 22 to a custom one so as not to break the functionality of the cloud?
Complementing the best practice, another option available that should be customize is the “root user”, is not recommendable to leave “root” user able to login, in “sshd_config” this means:
PermitRootLogin no
PasswordAuthentication no
AllowUsers user1 user2
Of course, before this, admins should add a new user first granting administrative privileges. (Keep in mind, this options guarantine in certain way a production server more secure, there are a more configurations to do in a server as “Initial Server Setup”).
If Wappler team allow this, will make things more easy for us.
So, the options are: change user and port.
Thanks
