This may have been asked , but im not really sure how to word it in the search bar.  
Dashboard is not secure, and if i want someone else to be able to use my dashboard they have to know my ip address and this leaves a door wide open.  
Can i create a web page on a regular server that has authentication (where i can change passwords)  
and control everything off of web page instead of using dashboard to display and control everything. or have them work in tandem? Sorry if this is a silly question. but just a nudge to the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
