Comment (by cypherpunks-duplicate):

 Some more advanced points to add for servers:

 IPMI and BMC/RMC awareness. Make sure you don't expose any management
 interface on server IP or dedicated IP. Check from inside the providers
 network and from outside. Nmap -sSV -p1-65535

 Configure mail system with TLS for outgoing mail only and with local
 (providers) smtp relay, if available

 Use simple log monitoring tool to alert in case of strange happenings.

 Before bringing the server online, install and configure tripwire.

 If possible, use a trusted hardware firewall to lock down traffic to
 exactly what is needed to operate. Have the firewall log any outgoing UDP
 traffic from the server, and if such traffic is observed and non-
 explainable, consider the hardware compromised.

 Use availability monitoring and latency monitoring (smokeping) to be in
 the picture what happens with the server.
