The issue is far bigger than just doing a few things to close your system up.
How valuable is your system for the 'mission' it
provides? What about your data? What backup and/or disaster recovery
processes have you prepared?
I'd actively migrate to a more recent edition of the OS, and put processes in
place to keep patches updated.There are a number of places to get hardening
guidance... YMMV. There is the Center for Internet Security, DISA and NIST.
Those are pretty good
starting point.
