Can someone please explain to me, a casual home user, why it's dangerous to expose my NAS login page to the internet?... (alien.top)

...without snark or jumping down my throat. I genuinely want to know why it's so unsafe.

I'm running a Synology DS920+, with my DSM login exposed through a Cloudflare tunnel. I have 2FA enabled, Synology firewall enabled with these rules in place. I also have this IP blocklist enabled.

After all of this, how would someone be able to break in via the DSM login?

Cyber Security seems to bring out weird bravado where people pretend like they know more than they do. This thread is literally dozens and dozens of people spouting nonsense.

I know, right? I'm not going to lie, it's very amusing reading some of these replies...

I was literally just posting this in hopes of learning a thing or two, as I've always loved tech and this is a hobby that has given me great joy over the last couple of years.
