📄️ Best Practices
There are a few things you should consider when securing your Minecraft server, especially if you host it at home. Not all of these will be possible depending on your network configuration, but do as many as you can. Some of these help to protect the Minecraft server, while others help protect your infrastructure from it if it's compromised. You can't be too careful when random people on the internet are connecting to your server.
