Hi y'all!

I've got my jellyfin server up and running with radarr and qBitTorrent and I'd like to extend access to out of network so I can access it when I'm not at home and give friends access to it. I also have plans to add immich and some other things. That said, is there a good comprehensive guide of ensuring my self hosted network is secure. I don't have much networking experience and I'd rather not have my data compromised especially once I move it from just a media server to a a server storing sensitive info such as personal pics and documents.

Just looking for a place to start as I see a lot of advice and a lot of terms everywhere.

Thanks for help!

TLDR; Looking for a comprehensive beginner friendly guide/resource to ensuring my server is secure :)

Edit: Appreciate all the advice! Thank you! Hopefully I will have a successful update in the next few weeks when I get some time to work on this project
