On: OpenSSH introduces options to penalize undesirable...

I saw a Postgres story like this one. Badly managed AWS org with way too wide permissions, a data scientist sort of person set it up and promptly reconfigured the security group to be open to the entire internet because they needed to access it from home. And this was a rather large IT company.

Yeah on some cloud provider, the virtual networks can be all too confusing. But this story sounded like a home machine.

DMZ setting on a router makes this pretty easy.

I've faced the DMZ at an IP on DHCP. Later when the host changed I had noticed traffic from the internet getting blocked on the new host and realized my mistake.
