Cloudflare is the only service that I trust enough with my data. My domain names are also hosted there, so there's no reason not to make use of Cloudflare's CDN and security vs having to harden my own server all the time, or spinning up instances all over the world for faster access and keeping it all updated at all times. I'm also using CrowdSec as a backup behind Cloudflare.

I'm not behind a CGNAT, and I also have a static IP. However, I think Cloudflare's Zero Trust is good enough since I'm already using their Cloudflare masking. No reason not to do it considering I have access behind most of my services.

Hey, I don't really have any resource, I also stumble and mess with it myself until I got the hang of it. I guess I can write a blogpost on how Cloudflare Tunnel actually works and how to configure it easily.

I'll update you once I do.

 

I've been backing up to a dedicated hard disk within the same server for all my backups in case my disks fail. And as I run more and more services, the concern of disks failures grow bigger.

I'm looking for a cheapish off-site backup solution and I'm just curious what everyone does for their 3-2-1 backup solutions.
