God bless CrowdStrike for their thoughtfulness!

I can once again refer to Jim’s Garages video about setting up wireguard on Docker. Very easy.

Wg-easy, with a nice interface.

I use nginx proxy manager for a reverse proxy and SSL cert automation. Works great for me but I would like to get into traefik sometime.

I got tired of the NPM and went to traefik for 2 reasons.

1. NPM kept locking me out of my account (admin), like 4 times during the time I was using it. That meant that it was not reliable enough for daily use.

2. From what I heard is that the NPM project only has 1 developer and so they can’t really respond and fix security flaws in a proper timeframe.

I’m using traefik now for internal traffic while VPN in if I need internal services while out and about.

Jim’s Garage has a great YouTube video on setting it up.

The web browser doesn’t care if the application is behind one, two or three rproxies. If I can still get to your application and guess your password or exploit a known vulnerability in your application then it’s game over.

Right!?

Your castle can have many walls of protection but if you leave the doors/ports open, people/traffic just passes through.
