    Hey there! Bit of an odd question, but this is about hardening the security/system, so I'm curious if it's possible to close the SFTP port and make it inaccessible from the outside (especially if it's not in use at all).

    Is that something that can be done via the Cloudron gui or do I need to poke around with iptables? I'm guessing those are the only way, since it's a Hetzner Cloud server whose firewall only does allows but not denies.

      In Hetzner case, you would create a firewall which allows port 80/443 (and the email ports). That's how you block port 222.
