Need help with basic security. Easy stuff!

Hi everybody, I've got a text-only site that I want secured as best as possible. Not like I'm expecting hacks or anything, but I just don't know if I've covered all the basic bases.

My host provider gives us cpanel x to use.

Anyways, do I have to worry about the default file permission settings in the file manager?

As for everything else:

Misdirected emails get dumped into :blackhole:
Spamassassin is enabled
Anonymous ftp is disabled

I created a subdomain ftp (ftp.mysitesname . com) and forward it to index.html. I did this because otherwise, it shows "welcome to my page" powered by apache

Directory listing is disabled
The folder cgi-bin is not password protected. Should it be?

Should I do anything else to secure this site? Thanks a lot!
