I buy VPS Cloud 1 from OVH,later will upgrade to VPS Cloud 2 or VPS Cloud 3 depends on how much traffic i will have on this website.

Can you suggest me how to secure this VPS?What i need to install to be safe from hackers?

Also please suggest how to optimize VPS to work as best as possible.It will be used for only one Wordpress website that get up to 30.000 pageviews per day.

I see on OVH website here: http://www.ovh.ie/vps/operating-system.xml

Secured to reduce risk of exposure to attacks
Pre-configured to improve performance of critical services


What this means?

Thanks,
Alex
