If you have to ask here how to do this, you are probably not well equipped to
reliably secure a server at the moment. If this is a production server with
important data, I would suggest hiring a capable professional to at least set
things up for you.
That said, i have found these NSA guidelines being cited very frequently as a
good and comprehensive starting point to securing your server:
