A must-read for any system administrator installing or currently using Apache, Hardening Apache shows you exactly what to do to make Apache more secure. Throughout this book, renowned author Tony Mobily introduces you to many of the security problems you'll inevitably stumble across when using Apache---and most important, you'll learn how to protect
yourself and your server.
