My suggestion: Put your SSH behind WireGuard and/or behind a jump host (with only port forwarding allowed, no shell). If you don’t have a separate host, use a Docker container.

If you use a jump host, consider a different OS (e.g., BSD vs Linux). Remember this analogy with slices of Swiss cheese used during the pandemics? If one slice has a hole, the next slice hopefully won’t have a hole on the same position. The more slices you have, the better for you.

Although for remote management, you don’t want to have too many “slices” you have to manage and that can fail.
