Comment on Suggestions to have a home server VPN and and Mullvad at the same time?
AtariDump@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoBecause something that’s critical to my environment (passwords) should be hosted by a company that can provide updates, patching, and remote access more securely than I can.
Everyone thinks that they can self host critical infrastructure better than a paid service, and that may be true for a while. But life has a way of interrupting the best laid plans. Suddenly, one day, you’re several versions out of date and a different vulnerability is used to get in your network. Now you’re like that LastPass employee that was compromised via an out of date plex server.
I have the space and the know how to host my on bitwarden/vaultwarden. But I don’t. Because that’s critical infrastructure and I’ll gladly pay for someone else to host it / patch it / etc.

I kinda get what you’re saying, but it’s not like I’m writing the password manager myself. The updates are automatic, and when it’s not updating the VM it’s hosted on has network restricted to everything but wireguard and for the bitwarden service. For me to get hacked, there would have to be a zero day exploits for my hypervisor, wireguard, and bitwarden all on the same day.
I understand what you’re getting at, but it’s not a publicly hosted service. It’s literally just for myself.
