Changing the default SSH port from port 22 to another won't be of much help in the face of a seasoned hacker. I would suggest disabling remote root login and enabling passwordless SSH authentication using sh key pair.If you are solely using your VPS server, then first thing, login to your SSH and change default port 22 to something else.
Install CSF firewall on your server and block all non used open ports.
But, if you are hosting your clients on the same server, then you may required some extra security tweaks.
Such as installing Imunify360 or BitNinja, Installing CloudLinux and disabling SymLink on your server.
You should do this as standard with any VPS regardless of who is using it.If you are solely using your VPS server, then first thing, login to your SSH and change default port 22 to something else.

Seasoned hackers usually start by looking for SSH port, right? By changing that port you'll at least save a bit of computational power of your server.Changing the default SSH port from port 22 to another won't be of much help in the face of a seasoned hacker.
i think the best solution is to use a ddos protected dedicated server and use your software firewall on your server to protect yourselve, if you are using linux csf is a good solution for software based firewall.how do you protect your VPS or dedicated server from any kind of attacks?
