Thats probably something to do with the way youre treating people, dont make yourself a target and you wont have to worry.

Or simply pull your servers from the network.

Rule number 1 when using HackForums.

Never show your face or use your share any details that could lead to being doxd.

Because you asked this question I believe there is nothing that you can do that will help but I'll assist in elevating the thinking for the sake of education.

 

A few questions that will enable you to provide your own answers. 

 

What security measures do you have available to you that will prevent compromise if security companies like RSA can't protect against hackers?

 

Do you know who is trying to hack you? Do you think the DHS or NSA or FBI would be interested in putting a trojan or rootkit on your systems to gather intelligence on people that post on your forums?

 

Do you think your forum software is free from vulnerabilities?

 

Do you think there is software that can prevent your forum or server from being hacked?

 

Are you running pirated software? If so how do you know you didn't compromise yourself?

 

Are you running your forum on a virtual machine that can be reverted to a known good state at will? 

 

Do you run a hardware firewall and IPS?

 

Did you know 

PowerShell comes built into all modern OS's

PowerShell commands allow for access to all the .NET API's

No AV software alerts on PowerShell commands

 

Did you know there's a free tool called SysMon that logs all PowerShell commands as well as process executions?
