How old is the server for this scenario? If it can't run a modern web server as a proxy directly. Then maybe you could set up a VPN tunnel between the server

How old is the server for this scenario?
If it can't run a modern web server as a proxy directly.
Then maybe you could set up a VPN tunnel between the server and your fancy cloud VM.
But running some ancient hardware not for historical reasons but taking user data, is wrong.

They could use something like VLAN to isolate that physical server on its own network, put the VLAN behind a firewall, and have an HTTPS reverse proxy that goes through that firewall. Depending on how their network is built, it might even be possible to make this self-service where you enable a setting in your account and your physical server gets wrapped in this additional layer.
