To enable access to the bastion host from public locations while reducing the Linux bastion host external attack surface by removing all public IP addresses, you should implement Identity-Aware Proxy TCP forwarding for the bastion host. This will allow Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) to access the internal VPC while off-site. Identity-Aware Proxy TCP forwarding allows you to securely access TCP-based applications such as SSH and RDP without exposing them to the internet. It provides a secure way to access your applications by verifying user identity and context of the request before granting access. By implementing Identity-Aware Proxy TCP forwarding for the bastion host, you can ensure that only authorized users can access the internal VPC while off-site, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.
