I've had a good experience using APF firewall (based on iptables) for securing servers
BFD is a good addon for it to prevent brute force attacks█ Accelerated Hosting - From Constant Internet

So you wanna say you got (D)DOSed? CSF will let you easily set rates for requests/s, connections/s + other stuff.

I will chime in with another vote for CSR. I use Cent on many of my servers and they work very well together.
