Best Practice to Publish FTP on NAT

Marwan Kandeel

Hi,

I’m having a NAS device in a NATed network. SOPHOS does handle all traffic.

I was able to publish the web GUI of NAS through SOPHOS. So now I’m able to login, upload and download using the NAS GUI.

This NAS, does support FTP, and I’m planning to publish it for FTP protocol.  So:

-What is the best practice? Just disable anonymous acces and restrict the access on password authentication? Is it enough?

-Please guide me how to publish my NAS as an FTP server through SOPHOS.

    Hi  

    We unfortunately don't have a best practice for this topic as it is a non-product specific subject. I would highly advise that you perform some research online regarding FTP and other more secure FTP alternatives.

    Regarding publishing your NAS, please follow this KBA that outlines how to create a DNAT rule to forward incoming traffic to your internal server. Within the rule configuration, please note that you can also enable an IPS policy to help increase security.
