As the title says, I want to know the most paranoid security measures you've implemented in your homelab. I can think of SDN solutions with firewalls covering every interface, ACLs, locked-down/hardened OSes etc but not much beyond that. I'm wondering how deep this paranoia can go (and maybe even go down my own route too!).

Thanks!

I've got systems that can detect suspicious activities in the net, which result in a shutdown of the router. And not like "could you please shut down" but a hard power off type of shutdown.

Now that's the kind of paranoid I was hoping to see in here. High five, pal.

Oh, you have a setup that signals to your power source to shut off internet when it detects an anomaly on the internet? That's quite specific, and I'm having trouble trying to understand the use-case here, but it's definitely included in the paranoid-list. Thanks!
