Question [url=http://www.eukhost.com/vps-hosting.php]VPS Hosting[/url] Security

Hi all

Still considering the purchase of a Linux VPS Hosting package I have been looking again at the getting started thread.

Quote:
The first thing most people do when they receive their VPS Hosting is make it secure against hackers and virus writers alike; an insecure VPS Hosting is a hackers playground since they could be able to install a rootkit on your VPS Hosting meaning that they would be able to gather data from it and run malicious applications in the background without you knowing. Once you have secured your VPS Hosting you are then able to go on to customizing it.
What actually does that statement mean ?
