Obviously the more secure the better, but start with the basics
Good passwords
Don't use default ports
and by zapto.org, I assume thats dydns
Another easy one to setup dont use sequential IP Address.These are the standards and anything on top of this is a bonus, VPS isnt really going to improve your security, but a VPN would.

how dos VPN work ? is that a server i install cccam on .. or do i install the VPN on my server ? :)

Depends what you mean by protect your server. I am not convinced that using VPS service is protecting anything, I would rather my info be a few feet away from me than stored in the cloud hundreds of miles away, and besides, how do we know how secure this is, and in joining a VPS you would have to provide personal details.
The key points to remember are firstly to change your ports and passwords to ones that are not default. Ensure your server/receiver are password protected with a password that only you are aware of. Port 12000 is the default port for a CCcam server, so change this to something else. Ensure you have the firewall activated on your router, and when you are configuring the port forwarding on your router, only open the server listen port, and no other.
You need to ensure you are checking all your peers to make sure they are secure. You can ping their ports to make sure they only have the server port open, and if they have other ports open that relate to http, ftp, CCcam etc, you can then ensure that they are not using default passwords. If you do find a peer's security has flaws, then don't share with them, and tell them what you have found.
If you are overly concerned about security, then don't cardshare at all.

Another one, make sure you change your routers password also.

I think it's important to define what you want to protect..
Security can be applied in several area's, when i think of these:
Your internet connection
- Close all unused ports on your router
- Disable ICMP requests (ping)Your Linux OS:
- Enable automatic security updates with reboot when needed
- When your server is not behind NAT, close all unused ports with iptables + disable ICMP
- Install a rootkit detectorYour Oscam / CCcam:
- Use SSL for the WebGUI
- Create auto-restart scripts
- Use strong username/passwords for your peer
- Check used build for vulnerabilities periodically
Your Cards:
- Control your re-shares
- Block unknown EMM'sA VPN provided by a trusted party (like nvpn.net) can hide your internet IP from other peers.
This way, your server is connected anonymously to the internet.Problem's with VPN is stability.. Even a paid VPN service, will disconnect so now- and then, to update their services.
When this happens, your server will be offline, until the service restores and your server connects again to the VPN service.
Another factor is the latency. VPN services run often on shared connections, giving unexpected latency.Therefore, i wouldn't recommend a VPN for use with cardsharing.
