It is a good advice but the OP is asking for web log files not ssh and any other logs. You cannot remove the attack surface when the app/service is served via http

If you use a service such as Cloudflare, you can restrict the ip range, ensuring that all requests go through that service (which probably has more experience with malicious requests than the website owner).

Remove? Probably not. There are many options for minimizing the attack surface with http.
