Background: 15 years of experience in software and apparently spoiled because it was already set up correctly.
Been practicing doing my own servers, published a test site and 24 hours later, root was compromised.
Rolled back to the backup before I made it public and now I have a security checklist.
You're viewing a single thread.
This is like browsing /c/selfhosted as everyone portforwards every experimental piece of garbage across their router...
Meh. Each service in its isolated VM and subnet. Plus just generally a good firewall setup. Currently hosting ~10 services plubicly, never had any issue.
Well, if you actually do that, bully for you, that's how that should be done if you have to expose services.
Everyone else there is probably DMZing their desktop from what I can tell.
hey, thats me!
Yeah the only thing forwarded past my router is my VPN. Assuming I did my job decently, without a valid private key it should be pretty difficult to compromise.
