I think you can IP whitelist who can access it no? That should solve any problems

There is zero (0) chance of an attacker to know and then spoof address of your friend unless you have even bigger problems. Good filter should simply not respond to any packets making very existence of exploitable site undetectable.

Does your friend have a static IP? Unlikely considering that you have to pay extra for a static IP.

@Emmie @Scary_le_Poo That depends on the ISP, there's still some out there that will give you one for free.

We are lucky, we get two free. Technically they aren't true static, its tied to MAC of your modem, or your router(s) -- with ISP modem in bridge mode. You can pay for true static, but I have probably had the same IP for 5 years, and same with the modem/routerbeforre this one.

So what's the alternative? VPNs are unreliable
