ModSecurity is an open-source web application firewall (WAF) that protects against attacks like SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS). Compatible with Apache, Nginx, and IIS, it intercepts and analyzes HTTP traffic in real-time. Its flexible rule-based engine allows customizable security policies, with logging and monitoring to track threats. In 2024, custodianship of ModSecurity was transferred to the OWASP Foundation, enhancing its development and integration with OWASP Core Rule Set.
