  • I’ve tried different approaches with fail2ban, crowdsec, VPNs, etc. What I settled on is to divide the data of my services in two categories: confidential and “I can live with it leaking”.

    The ones that host confidential data is behind a VPN and has some basic monitoring on them.

    The ones that are out in the public are behind a WAF from cloudflare with pretty restrictive rules.

    Yes, cloudflare suck etc., but the value of stopping potential attacks before they reach your services is hard to match.

    Just keep in mind: you need layers of different security measures to protect your services (such as backups, control of network traffic, monitoring and detection, and so on).



  • I like this thread :-)

    I have just checked off a long standing item in my backlog: implementing OIDC on at least two apps. I’ve used a remote keycloak instance for authention for my household and so far so good. Now I’ll try to understand the configurations a little better before take on other items on my backlog.

    One of the main points of the article is not how it affects one as a individual, but how impacts the very social fabric of our societies. Even if you’re spared from the effects of the rot economy, you’re surrounded by people who are, and it impact them psychologically which in turn affects their mood, well being and their behavior towards their peers.

    While I don’t agree with everything in this article, it has some very important points. The digital services that we use can have an impact on our digital daily lives on par to a governments.

    This isn’t a call for every person to save themselves. This is a call to save our peers and our well being on a macro level.
