PermitRootLogin
I'm confused about PermitRootLogin settings. It seems I need to set it off because of security reasons. But how can I reach my server with root-like permissions. I dont know how can I give root permissions to user? I heard about "sudo" but I dont have any idea about that too.

1. use portsentry , fail2 ban ( read in google what they does)
2. dont run unnecessary service
3. tight down your server with firewall rules
