Here are some things you can do to make your apache configuration more secure.

Apache is the world’s most common web server and it runs on just about anything, Linux, Unix, Mac OS X, Windows, BSD, you name it and it’s typically the web server of choice in the Linux world. Apache is developed and maintained by an open community of developers under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation. It is free in cost and is licensed under the Apache license, one of man open source licenses.
Htaccess can be used to password-protect directories on your web site. All files and any subdirectories within a directory protected by htaccess will also be protected. So, if you wish to protect your entire web site, simply setup htaccess in your public_html directory (the root of your web site). However, if you only wish to protect certain directories, you may do so separately.
