If your server is Linux, to save your dedicated server from brute-force attacks change your Secure Shell from 22 to something else. Also be mindful about the health of the computers used for server administration. Make sure they're not malware infected. You can also disable a few PHP settings like allow_url_include and allow_url_fopen.

For better measure keep everything updated, backed up an update passwords regularly as well.

Hope this helped.
