KI-SSL For Apps


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I'm someone who puts the "stupid" into the KISS (keep it simple stupid) principle.  I recently installed Duplicacy to backup to B2, but noticed that the process for setting up SSL certs for that is beyond my capabilities.  I don't want to ditch Unraid for an off-the-shelf NAS, but also want to know that my backup data, and other app-related browser data, are totally secure.  My security concerns are mainly internal to my network, given that I have no ports open, but that may change.  So my question is:  What options are there for using SSL while interfacing with apps in a browser?  I see discussions of reverse proxies, cloudflare, caddy, zero trust, etc... but quite honestly these solutions seem a little daunting.  In short, is there a solution that would require 15 minutes or less of my time, using GUI's only, and does not necessitate a VPS or CS degree?  Thank you!

Then no point for SSL, who cares if the traffic that only goes between your browser and the NAS locally is encrypted during that transit.

Then when it's time to do that you'll need things that provide that functionality anyway.

Given that unraid is on the same network as devices that could be compromised, I think it's important, especially when you're dealing with backup data credentials. No?
