How to Add New User
Right now you sign in and execute all commands as root users on your computer. You can change each aspect of your server by this user. This is perfect for administration, but it is not ideal for protection to login periodically and access your VPS as user.

Step 2
The command will ask you to input a password. We highly recommend a strong, secure password.
