- Protect your web interface with a password
- Secure your host. Sources could be Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Security Guide, CIS Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Benchmark, or the Securing Debian Manual.
- Restrict network access to your devices. Set

- Protect your communication with TLS
- Protect your communication with Tor
