Got the ideas from networkchuck
Did this on the proxmox host as well as all VMs.
Any suggestions?
this is not even all of it.
the big take away is i try to layer things. the endpoint devices are most important to protect and monitor as those are the foot hold something needs to then move through the network.
i then use network level protections to secure the remaining portions of the network from other portions of the network.
Messy...just messy
