Upgrade Your Bastion with a Drawbridge
https://sysless.com/bastion-host-drawbridge/The goal is that only the bastion host is reachable, either directly from the internet or particular IPs. It’s the only entry point to your infrastructure so it’s easier to secure this single server.
However, do you really need multiple bastions to run at all time?
So why not remove the entrance to our bastion when we are not using it...
