Overview
Steps

sshd
Allowed Users
Configure sshd to only allow root access only based on public/private key identification.
Alternatively, create a special login user with a random name and a long, random password:
groupadd -g 1200 m3rt50acc useradd -g 1200 -m -u 1200 m3rt50acc
then Disallow root to log in at all. Possibly add m3rt50acc's public key to authorized_keys.
sshd Port
Disable IPV6
Prevent the sshd from listing on IPV6.
iptables
iptables review.
Incremental Remote Backup System Security Analysis
TODO
