• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Hello,

Does plesk installation offer security settings by default ? So my task is only to install plesk and start offering hosting services ? Or do I need to be Linux specialist to host other people sites ?

Do you have Basic Guide for hosting and info about common pitfalls ?

Click to expand...

you have to install firewalls and other security measures.

i am also thinking if a server admin is required
 
Plesk Do not offer security after its installed. You have to install and configure the components in order to secure a Plesk server. Things like Fail2Ban , Plesk Firewall , Mod Security etc.. can be done from Plesk as well as changing the SSH port , enabling SYN protection and few more things needs to be done from root level itself for hardening.
