  • Alright everyone, thank you so much for your thoughtful recommendations! To sum it up, here’s what I have done:

    • I used let’s encrypt’s Certbot to get my SSL certs and setup https, auto-renew every 3 months and I setup a reminder to update Certbot every month.
    • I setup a permanent redirect from http to https in Apache
    • I installed a firewall on the Pi, only 80, 443 and [22 from my computer to the RPi] are open. I couldn’t find the firewall settings on my router but I assume they exist since I had to forward 80 and 443 there.
    • installed the following plugins: WordFence and WP Fail2Ban
    • changed the user password on the pi to a better longer one

    I think I should be all set, shouldn’t I?













  • Ok so I used to work for iRobot, the OG robot vacuum maker. Robot vacuums used to vacuum randomly. To make them vacuum systematically, they need to map your house. One cheap way to do that is to use a camera roughly pointing at your ceiling and do Video SLAM. The camera identifies features on your ceiling and how they are changing to know where the robot is and map the room.

    I guess ecovac thought they could add a camera feed feature for free since they already had a camera on the robot.
