I've been using windows/django1.4/apache2.2 for a couple intranet apps and 
it has been working well.  I recently had our admin open up a port in our 
firewall to deploy another app publicly. We weren't using the app and there 
were issues when testing, since both the admin and myself are newbies to 
deploying publicly with Apache with SSL. So we left the server as is and 
tested UX for this app on an external host.  We installed a new system wide 
firewall last week which the admin thought would help with our issues so I 
went to do some server prep today to bring the app on an internal server 
again.  

A check of the access logs found a specific external IP address hitting the 
server every 1/4 second with strange URLs that look to be commonly used php 
urls since June 7,2013.  It has been getting hit for DAYs and I just wasn't 
monitoring the server. Each of the requests either 302'd or 404'd and there 
are thousands of them.  I stopped the server, and sent an email to the 
admin to close that port down.

Since neither I nor the system admin know much about deploying, is there 
anywhere I can look to hire someone to help get this app deployed safely?
Our policies require SSL and we are willing to use other OS or servers, we 
just need someone who knows what they are doing. 

We are in the NYC vicinity. 

Thanks,
