Comment on Jellyfin over the internet
EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 week agoa rule blocking connections from other countries, and also requiring the request for the login page come from one of the services on your domain, will block virtually all malicious attempts to access your services.
Whoa whoa whoa. What malicious attempts?
You just told me you were the statistical wonder that nobody is bothering attack?
That’s 2k requests made. None of them were served.
So those 2k requests were not you then? They were hostile actors attempting to gain unauthorized access to your services?
Well there we have it folks lmao

I said it would block all malicious attempts. I didn’t say the people trying to access my services were malicious. Clearly the OP is worried about that. I however, having just the meager experience of, you know, actually fucking running the a Jellyfin server, am not. But I’m also not trying convince people I’m a smug cybersecurity expert with a decade of experience.

As OP should be. 2k attempts a day at unauthorized access to your services is a pretty clear indicator of that. Seems you’ve mitigated it well enough, why would you suggest that OP not bother doing the same? If you’re so convinced those 2k attempts are not malicious, then go ahead and remove those rules if they’re unnecessary.
Perhaps as someone with only meager experience running a Jellyfin server who can’t even recognize malicious traffic to their server, and zero understanding of the modern internet threat landscape, you shouldn’t be spreading misinformation that’s potentially damaging to new selfhosters?

If you were any good at reading, you would know that I said those rules protect the Authelia login page. They don’t protect the Jellyfin service or its login page at all. The Jellyfin instance is not behind anything except Cloudflare. I stated that in my very first message. Removing those rules would have no effect whatsoever on Jellyfin.

It’s over man. You’ve made it very clear you have no idea what you’re talking about, how any of this works, or even what’s going on with your own selfhosted services. Back peddling away from your own arguments and trying to sweep up the beans you’ve already spilled isn’t going to help your case.
Maybe stick to your day job, I just don’t think that cybersecurity career is in the cards for you.
