Methodology

Service Narrative

Overview

I use Cloudflare Tunnel to securely expose my self-hosted Postiz instance (postiz.anilshebin.in) to the internet without opening a single firewall port. Combined with Tailscale for internal mesh networking, this creates a zero-trust access model that's more secure than traditional VPN setups and significantly easier to manage. Perfect for teams self-hosting tools on bare metal or cloud VMs.

Our Strategic Process

  1. Infrastructure Assessment: Reviewing your server setup, services to expose, and access requirements to design the right networking topology.
  2. Cloudflare Tunnel Setup: Installing and configuring cloudflared daemon on your server, creating tunnel credentials, and mapping services to public hostnames with HTTPS enforced.
  3. Access Policy Configuration: Setting up Cloudflare Access policies (or Tailscale ACLs) to restrict who can reach which services — by email, SSO provider, or device.
  4. Tailscale Mesh (Optional): Adding Tailscale for private inter-service communication between your nodes — creating a secure, encrypted mesh across any cloud or home server.

Business Impact & Benefits

  • Zero open firewall ports — dramatically reduced attack surface.
  • Works from behind CGNAT or dynamic IPs — no static IP required.
  • Cloudflare-managed DDoS protection and SSL for all exposed services.
  • Fine-grained access control per user, device, and service.
