Assuming the user will not be connecting over vpn, but is both remote and non-technical, how would you expose Jellyfin to them securely?

Sure… If someone managed to stream some of my media… They probably earned it… But then they exploit a vulnerability to perform arbitrary code execution, and leverage that to hack everything else on my network…

I’m learning a lot of this as I go and have not exposed any services to the internet yet, but would VLANs not contain the damage to a limited portion of the network? Because that’s the plan I’m working toward. Not just for Jellyfin but a handful of other services.
That… might work. Do you have a different physical server for each service though?
The issue is once someone is in, then they can try to jailbreak and move laterally to get to other things. Other devices, into the file system.
Jellyfin might not be your concern, but are there other files on that server? Or services? Secrets passwords etc? If anything else is on that vlan, what security flaws might be there that an attacker could use?
There is no personal information on anything in that proposed VLAN currently, and in the future, the most personal stuff it will include is a chat program to replace Discord. In all, I’m assuming I can run the reverse proxy and most services (not even a dozen) on a mini PC, and then somewhere between 1-4 on a NAS. Two devices total on this VLAN, unless I learn of something that would change this plan.
