My twingate connector that was supposed to rely me to my local network did'nt reboot the server when updated.
That's pretty stupid from me but then, I'll have to find another secure way to connect my network to the outside.
Anyways, I don't think it was a good idea to give all my data flow to an external company...
What is the best way to connect to a local network from the outside internet ? Rather a #zero-trust network tunnel or a #VPN server ?
Here is the dilemma:
- using a zero-trust tunnel means to rely all the network data to a third-party company
- Implementing a VPN server opens a possible security breach in the network, compromising all my private data
Due to the lack of trust in a third-party company, I've decided to rent a VPS to self-host #netbird and connect all my servers to my network. It seems to work pretty great ! I'll progressively add all the necessary resources to the network in order to work remotely on my own machines

Putting all eggs in on basket ๐Ÿงบ is never a better way to secure network services
@sophietkd You're right, but what alternative can I have to access my local network from the outside world ?
@martinzerty
It depends what kind of home router you have with that setup at least be sure you can access the vps only via wireguard and rotate the keys regularly
@sophietkd Okay. That means I need to set up a VPN server at home and configure the ports accordingly, right? But what happens if there are vulnerabilities in the VPN? Anyone could access everything on my network, not just the services I expose on the server.
