Just by making it so I can’t access from a system I don’t control. Like say I need to retrieve a document from my house, but I’m in a SCIF, or a waiting room, or anywhere else I wouldn’t have my personal device, it’s super useful to just connect to something like Nextcloud and pull it down.
I didn’t say you should put your Nextcloud instance behind a VPN. Mine is public too.
I’m saying you should put your administrative access behind a VPN. SSH, reverse proxy admin panel, you name it. You need not do administrative stuff from work.
Oh yeah, I 100% agree with that, honestly two VPNs are better given you wouldn’t want your normal VPN to terminate into your management vlan (nor should you want your management vlan to have access to the internet). I thought we were just discussing normal homelab stuff, all administrative stuff should really be oob.
