Nginx Proxy Manager, a popular web-based and user-friendly reverse proxy management interface for Nginx, has just released version 2.13.6. Although this is only a patch release to a minor version, it actually delivers some fairly significant improvements.

The most notable change is the addition of TOTP-based two-factor authentication, allowing administrators to protect access to the web interface with time-based one-time passwords, bringing a long-requested security feature to Nginx Proxy Manager.

Certificate management has also been expanded. When creating new certificates, users can now explicitly choose between RSA and ECDSA key types, offering greater flexibility depending on compatibility or performance requirements.

For just one person limited use like that, i'd just use a VPN for whenever you're away from home.

But you could learn a bit about hardening and expose it anyways if you want, I personally just want to be able to access my stuff from anywhere so I spend a decent amount of time hardening.

It's not too hard, you really just need a certain baseline to defend against script kiddies and bot mass scanners. Unless you're a business or a high value target or something that'll attract the skills of "real" hackers
