What are the most paranoid network/OS security measures you've implemented in your homelab?

As the title says, I want to know the most paranoid security measures you've implemented in your homelab. I can think of SDN solutions with firewalls covering every interface, ACLs, locked-down/hardened OSes etc but not much beyond that. I'm wondering how deep this paranoia can go (and maybe even go down my own route too!).

Thanks!

How do you all that have your services on your LAN accessing it over wireguard when external pass the wife/kids/family test? If I had to have my wife activate a VPN before she could access our nextcloud or bitwarden, she'd just never use it

Is always on not an option?

always on they wouldnt know about it and if the connection failed or the wg service crashed on their phone then the services wouldn't work. It adds a complexity that you don't want when you're trying to pass the wife test. Plus yes battery.

no wireguard should not decrease batterylife (see my other comment) we use wg eith always on without any problems. sometimes it stops on one phone but l9oking for the key icon and clicking the action button in the navigationcontrolmenuthingy is quite easy
