BunkerWeb is an open-source, next-generation web application firewall (WAF) designed to protect web services, applications, and APIs from sophisticated attacks. It acts as a reverse proxy, inspecting and blocking malicious traffic before it reaches the application, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. BunkerWeb’s core philosophy emphasizes transparency and trust, providing open-source code that anyone can audit. This approach contrasts with proprietary, opaque security solutions. Key features include automated HTTPS support, integrated mod security with the OWASP core rule set, anti-bot mechanisms, and support for DNSBL to block known bad IPs. The system is designed to be user-friendly, with a graphical web interface that simplifies configuration and management. BunkerWeb supports multi-site mode, allowing a single instance to protect multiple applications, and offers professional tiers for enterprise support. The tool aims to simplify complex security challenges, providing a secure-by-default starting point that users can customize.
