I was hacked by some screwball. One of the recommendations an "expert" gave me was to block unused ports on my cPanel. I currently don't have any HTTPS/secure sections on the site.

Will blocking some ports offer any protection? Which ones should I block?

Are there any other steps I can take that doesn't require A+ certification?

Thanks much for the help!
