Running n8n in your homelab without proper isolation is a liability. CVE-2025-68613 lets authenticated users execute code with container privileges; if that container sits on your default Docker...

Running a local model means no quota walls, no token metre ticking, and no surprise bills when the agent loops through ten reasoning steps. Cloud coding assistants collapse under agentic use; local...

Most home routers allow everything outbound by default, which is exactly how AVRecon persisted undetected for six years. A stateful firewall with explicit outbound rules and network segmentation...

Health data inside a corporate platform means health data inside a jurisdiction you do not control, encrypted or not. Self-hosting it locally—with proper backups and audit trails—trades convenience...
