Simply add `rcon_password "yourAmazingPasswordHere"` to your server.cfg file. Easy peasy.

Setting an RCON password in CS:GO lets you remotely control your server like a boss! Just open the server configuration file (it's usually named 'server.cfg'). Then, add the line `rcon_password yourpassword` but, ya know, replace 'yourpassword' with something more secretive and less guessable. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility - don't let that password fall into the wrong hands!

I've been running CS:GO servers for years, and here's a hot tip: always change your RCON password regularly. Just pop open your server config, slap in `rcon_password "newpassword"`, and you're golden. Keeps those pesky hackers guessing!
