Can someone please explain to me, a casual home user, why it's dangerous to expose my NAS login page to the internet?...

…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?

It’d be best to host a vpn publically instead, and get to the synology via the VPN.
