Hi Geeks, Qualys announced IronBee, a new open source project to provide the next-generation of web application firewall (WAF) technology.
Led by the team who designed and built ModSecurity, the new project aims to produce a web application firewall sensor that is secure, high- performing, portable, and freely available – even for commercial use. A WAF is typically an appliance, server plug-in, or software-based filter that applies a set of rules to an HTTP conversation in order to monitor and control the movement of data, thus keeping it secure from possible attacks. By customizing the rules of a WAF, many attacks can be identified and blocked.
