    How do you secure your home lab?

  • Unattended updates are a recipe for trouble. I'd never enable that.

    I have no public services apart from 2 OpenVPN servers. To access everything else I connect to one of the OpenVPNs and use the services through the VPN routings.

    The VPN can only be accessed if you possess a cert and key. I could even implement 2fa but for now SSL auth works securely enough.
