I am trying to expose an Apple HomeKit Bridge integration, the configuration suggests that
The firewall should be opened on the port the bridge is listening on.
But there is no mention of security implication of this, I run home assistant on an IPv6 address, accessible to the public internet.
Is it ok to expose this port to the internet, as in is there a homekit specific authentication, authorization that happens when I pair with the bridge or the port is open for anyone to pair?
