…without snark or jumping down my throat. I genuinely want to know why it’s so unsafe.

I’m running a Synology DS920+, with my DSM login exposed through a Cloudflare tunnel. I have 2FA enabled, Synology firewall enabled with these rules in place. I also have this IP blocklist enabled.

After all of this, how would someone be able to break in via the DSM login?

    I have setup a wireguard in server with dedicated ip. I followed the documentation and open few ports nothing else regarding security. I connect my home machine and my phone when needed to the wireguard serverso I can access jellyfin and other services.

    Do I need to setup anything else, or is it already secure?

    One more thing, is it recommended to connect my proxmox host to the wireguard VPN?

      Sounds like you did a decent job. Why would you connect the Proxmox host to the VPN? Typically you’ll route certain local addresses (or whole subnets) via chain forwarding. That way, when you connect to the VPN it’s as if you’re on the local network. The way you’re describing it, you would need to know it’s VPN IP which is usually dynamic. And you don’t typically want VPN clients to be able to access each other - just the local network. It really all depends how you set everything up.
