I recently got a Synology NAS and I am trying to setup Emby. I wanna host a media server however, I wanna be able to access the emby location from anywhere and let say my mom access it. Just I wanna keep it secure. Should I use cloudflare?

    You can use CF Tunnel so you don’t need to expose any ports from your router. They’ll also do SSL termination for you as well. You can use their free plan for this AFAIK. You can also run your own SSL proxy as well with HAProxy or Nginx. I’d just use CF, it’s easier TBH.

      Be aware hosting media thru their proxy is breaking their ToS. Not saying anything will happen, but be mindful.
