Is the server you're looking to secure Windows or Linux? What sort of software/applications are you running and/or what is the server's use?

there are many software programs available that you can use, if it's within your budget a hardware-based firewall will generally give you a better level of protection.

Modify php rules in the config file. Mod Security. Fully secure apache. If you are a little less experienced the best thing you can do is run cpanel then install csf firewall install that it is very easy then run the security check and go through the list. It will show you how to do everything. It has a web based gui through cpanel as an addon on the bottom of whm to the left
