Blocks sophisticated Web application attacks

Effectively mitigates a long list of application-manipulation attacks including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and cross-site request forgery (CSRF). Keeps your data safe and you compliant.

Instant Web server hardening

Shields your Web server against attempts to exploit over 14,000 common server misconfigurations, as well as an ever-expanding universe of known 3rd-party software vulnerabilities. Minimizes your risk by keeping you one step ahead of attackers.

Get started quickly

Saves you time and money during implementation. Just boot up and run through the 5-step Quick Start process. All this from an ISO image under 7 megabytes!

Real-time e-mail and HTTP alerts

Keeps you informed of attacks as they occur using 2 convenient delivery methods:

1. E-mail messages to one or more recipients
2. POST an XML message to an HTTP server

The "POST" option enables enhanced logging to SQL databases and/or triggering other alert mechanisms.
