If you have access to the php.ini file, go through it and read the
comments. If any settings affect the security of your set up, it'll
generally be noted somewhere in there. For example, one of the comments
tells you that you should generally disable having your GET and POST
variables automatically converted to globals.
Also, it's usually recommended to always run the latest stable
version of all you softwares. You may want to subscribe you mailing
lists that report when new versions of PHP or Apache are released, for
example.
