What security measures should be implemented for a bare metal server?

Security begins with limiting physical access and implementing BIOS and boot-level passwords. Use secure OS installation methods and apply the latest patches and firmware updates. Configure firewalls and intrusion detection systems to monitor traffic.

Employ SSH key-based authentication instead of passwords, disable unused services and ports, and enforce role-based access controls.

Encrypt data at rest and in transit using SSL/TLS and full-disk encryption. Regular vulnerability scans and security audits help identify risks early. Finally, enable hardware-level security features like TPM (Trusted Platform Module) for enhanced protection against tampering or unauthorized access.
