Well when it comes to DDoS, the best defence is to not draw attention to your existence. Which the only way to do so is to not run a server at all. The second best to that is to have as big a connection as you can which wont ever stop DDoS.
As for other abuses, that all depends on the abuse type. |

| make sure you use session limiting to restrict the number of connections allowed per address (a value of three shouldn't hurt many normal users). as for stats, denora is a great choice. |
