To mitigate the effort to maintain my personal server, I am considering to only expose ssh port to the outside and use its socks proxy to reach other services. is Portknocking enough to reduce surface of attack to the minimum?
Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I’ve seen in this thread:
Fewer Letters | More Letters |
---|---|
SSH | Secure Shell for remote terminal access |
SSL | Secure Sockets Layer, for transparent encryption |
UDP | User Datagram Protocol, for real-time communications |
VPN | Virtual Private Network |
VPS | Virtual Private Server (opposed to shared hosting) |
