I’ve been running Home Assistant for three years. It’s port forwarded on default port 8123 via a reverse proxy in a dedicated VM serving it over HTTPS and is accessible over ipv4 and ipv6. All user accounts have MFA enabled.
I see a notification every time there’s a failed login attempt, but every single one is either me or someone in my house. I’ve never seen a notification for any other attempts from the internet. Not a single one.
Is this normal? Or am I missing something? I expected it to be hammered with random failed logins.
That’s normal if you’re not exposing it to the Internet I suppose. Probably not a lot of bots out there looking for it, but the better question is WHY you have it exposed to the internet.
