  No, a VPN isn't magic in and of itself. And yes, I would suggest wireguard for the simplicity and performance these days. I do agree with the author of the original article that security should come in layers Once something is secured with SSH and a VPN, you've got that many more actual layers - you now need a CVE that allows access or credential leak for both the VPN and SSH. (And many of those CVEs don't necessarily allow a random attacker to arbitrarily gain access) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24446919 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24446919 has my list of what the bare minimum SSH protections should be for anything where you are storing customer/user data in my opinion, as well as additional best practices that I have employed.
