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

…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?

    Did you Google or ask chat gpt

    No, I didn’t, because I wanted to start up a conversation with real humans who are in the same situation as me… Or, you know, the entire purpose of Reddit.
