Hi, I know this topic has been talked about 70 thousand times but I’m still not sure.

I have home server on an intel NUC behind the ISP router. On it I have the standard arr apps, jellyfin, pi-hole etc etc. I would like to access them through a domain rather than an IP. So I set them up in docker, behind traefik, behind authelia and behind cloudflare. I am the only one that uses it.

Now, I’m worried about the security of it all. I’ve been searching here and there and I’ve read about cf tunnels, wireguard server, vps, vlan, OPNsense etc etc. I still don’t know what would be the most secure. Should I just stay with what I have?

EDIT: I’m not behind CGNAT

    Since you aren’t behind CGNAT you can go full self-hosted! Don’t bother with Tailscale or Cloudflare Tunnel or other VPN services that connect through third parties if you can help it.

    Here’s something to get you started with setting up a wireguard server on your NUC. https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install
