Question
Do i need to be an expert on security to have a secure Online Store in my droplet?
I have a big question about security and its requirements. I have a client who needs an online store with Stripe payment processing and I am concerned about hosting their website here or with another company that offers managed service (cw) because we will not have a security expert or anything like that to configure the server, update and maintain top security to prevent theft or leakage of card numbers. We are willing to invest the money in the other managed service company because we know that we will support DigitalOcean in the same way.
From what I am doing here, I have realized that things are easy, everything can be installed in just 1 click from the marketplace but I do not know about security and server protection issues. Do I need to be an expert in security or something related to be able to give full confidence to customers who buy through the online store with a card?
