Pass can’t do this.
Pass can’t do this.
It’s a cli tool, so you can call it within another call using dollar sign syntax
terraform apply --var "myvalue=$(pass path/to/value)"
I’m using pass at home, but I’ve used hashicorp vault at a few jobs with great success.
IBM just forked it to openBao as well to get around the business license, if that’s a concern for your. But honestly I’d trust hashicorp more than IBM at this point.
You can try putting it on pretty 443 or another tls port. It’s not a perfect solution but it could help for your specific setup.
Wireguard is e2e encrypted, no middleman can inspect the packets without the private keys.

Get rid of their junk equipment and put something decent in. Discord link is a group dedicated to doing just that. You may find info for your specific ISP.
If you do it right, you won’t even need their gear inline at all.
I use Ranger day to day and just access external volumes from their automatic mount points in /media, or I mount them manually to /mnt.
It works for me!
You could always add them to the allow list so they don’t get blocked.
All software ads exploits. Antivirus software mitigates already exploited systems.
And yes, some antivirus programs are infamous for being difficult to work with, but also remember that any vector that allows a user to easily override antivirus features can also be done by malicious software.
Moving the port doesn’t reduce attack surface. It’s the same amount of surface.
Tailscale is a bit controversial because it requires a 3rd party to validate connections, a 3rd party that is a large target for threat actors, and is reliant on profitability to stay online.
I would recommend a client VPN like wireguard, or SSH being validated using signed keys against a certificate authority your control, with fail2ban.
This is not true and bad security practice.
There are exploits that can be installed without a mistake made on the users part, the user can make a mistake, and almost every user downloads and open files regularly.
Windows is less secure than the other options, but the other options are not impenetrable. The biggest botnets are made of Linux IoT devices, and nobody opened the wrong email on they’re thermostat…
What a virus scanner will do is check your filesystem and possibly program memory for known footprints. A tool like this can save you from becoming a node on a botnet or being crypto locked. More importantly, if you work from home it can save your company from this issue as well!
Sounds like you were out of resources. That is the goal of a DoS attack, but you’d need connection logs to detect if that was the case.
DDoS attacks are very tricky to defend. (Source: I work in DDoS defence). There’s two sections to defense, detection and mitigation.
Detection is very easy, just look at packets. A very common DDoS attack uses UDP services to amplify your request to a bigger response, but then spoof your src ip to the target. So large amounts of traffic is likely an attack, out of band udp traffic is likely an attack. And large amount of inband traffic could be an attack.
Mitigation is trickier. You need something that can handle a massive amount of packet inspection and black holing. That’s done serious hardware. A script kiddie can buy a 20Gbe/1mpps attack with their moms credit card very easily.
Your defence options are a little limited. If your cloud provider has WAF, use it. You may be able to get rules that block common botnets. Cloudflare is another decent option, they’ll man in the middle your services, and run detection and mitigation on all traffic. They also have a decent WAF.
Best of luck!

Most people just use a browser these days, and they behave the same in every OS.
Steam has proton to run non native games on Linux, and works well enough for most things.
Try a few live images before making the switch.
You don’t require docker to self host. You have a lot to learn, so trimming down the amount of things your doing is the right idea. Ignore it for now.
You don’t have to buy a domain, you can use your IP directly, or use a free dynamic dns service.
Mastadon may be too complicated for a first host for a beginner. I would recommend trying something simpler first, but it’s your hobby so do it how you want to.
I migrated from Plex to jellyfin.
I tried it out when I couldn’t get HEVC files to steam on Plex, and i liked it!
It doesn’t have the full ecosystem around it that Plex does, but that’s fine by me.
I’ve had new hardware in the basement now for a while, going to slap it together and build a k8s cluster on top of rancher/harvester
Doubt. You probably need to set the file owners in your volume to the same user running in the container.
