    Proxmox server hardening document for compliance

    Hi y’all, I’ve released a Proxmox hardening guide (PVE 8 / PBS 3) that extends the CIS Debian 12 benchmark with Proxmox specific tasks. Repo: https://github.com/HomeSecExplorer/Proxmox-Hardening-Guide A few controls are not yet validated and are marked accordingly. If you have a lab and can...

    ...as it could expose the hypervisor to potential exploits. Is there a roadmap to address these security concerns, perhaps through enhanced hardening or isolation? Ideally, we’d love to see an appliance-based backup solution similar to what’s offered for VMware, or at least the option to...

    How to "luks" without physical installation

    ...with any further configurations. I’ve read some articles recommending a single partition approach, such as this one: https://dustri.org/b/hardening-proxmox-against-physical-attacks.html. Additionally, I’ve come across many resources that suggest using full disk encryption combined with ZFS...

    Proxmox server hardening document for compliance

    ...admin users that can use sudo? Is this all done manually? Maybe add TOTP to local admin users, too Restrict SSH even more, e.g. via this hardening guide. SSH only from management lan via SSH config or via Firewall? This is not very clear in the document. SIEM is good, but AFAIK there is no...

    Is hardening enough?

    A real quick question guys. I have a few containers exposed and I want to be able to protect them as best as I can. At the gateway is NPM and then LXC and vm's. So is hardening the Proxmox firewall sufficient or is it recommended to have something between the NPM and the containers?

    Upgrade from 8.3 to 8.4 server no longer boots

    ...without quiet. System hangs at loading initial ramdisk image, eventually continuing the boot process. So far three servers with the same configuration have this issue. I'm going to try a 4th DL360, but it is not in the same cluster and is configured differently with no extra hardening applied.

    UEFI PXE Boot Issues After Upgrading from Proxmox VE 8.3.4 to 8.3.5

    I know, but even if you have an EFI disk present which doesn't have secureboot enabled, the PXE option is still gone.

    that will disable secureboot, which is the precondition for a lot of those hardening measures.

    I can also confirm that you'll get the PXE option back without having an RNG device if there's no EFI disk present at all. Just remove your EFI disk and the option will be back, this makes the so called "hardening" measure even more nonsense to me.

    UEFI PXE Boot Issues After Upgrading from Proxmox VE 8.3.4 to 8.3.5

    ...and here I thought it was just me. ;) Me too! (I've been running PVE for almost two weeks, haven't a clue what VirIO RNG even is yet.) I have no idea what that means, but thank you for the explanation!

    UEFI PXE Boot Issues After Upgrading from Proxmox VE 8.3.4 to 8.3.5

    I've just created a new VM, and the VirtIO RNG is not automatically added. Would it be better to add it automatically when a new VM is created? I think some people will be surprised that their VMs can no longer PXE boot :(

    UEFI PXE Boot Issues After Upgrading from Proxmox VE 8.3.4 to 8.3.5

    because EDKII implemented a security hardening measure that means network booting requires a source of entropy, if none is found network booting is disabled.

    Working on hardening Proxmox hosts - looking for advice regarding some findings

    I would also be interessted in the results of this CIS hardening. As you've already said ... why would adding another insecure ring of encryption help in this case? Having the encrypted data AND the key to decrypt it on the same machine does not make the system more secure. Can you try to...

    Guidance on hardening/disabling SSH

    I'm currently hardening my environment, and my current task is SSH. Looking at my single VE node, I see that SSH is enabled. After a quick search, it seems SSH may be required for VE operations. I use only the web interface, I never SSH into VE. VE is not in a cluster, although that could change...
