A Web Application Firewall (WAF) package for Laravel that protects applications from attacks like XSS, SQLi, RFI, LFI, and malicious user agents via route middleware. It blocks repeated attackers, logs failed logins, and sends email/Slack notifications when attacks are detected.

Use cases

  • protect a Laravel app from XSS and SQL injection attacks
  • block IPs after repeated failed login attempts
  • whitelist IPs for admin routes
  • get Slack or email alerts when an attack is detected
  • block requests based on user agent, referrer, or geolocation
  • add a WAF to an existing PHP Laravel application

When to choose

  • you run a Laravel application and want middleware-based WAF protection without external infrastructure
  • you need per-route IP whitelisting/blacklisting and attack notifications
  • you want brute-force login protection built into your app

When to avoid

  • your application is not built on Laravel or PHP
  • you need a network-level or reverse-proxy WAF like ModSecurity or Cloudflare
  • you require advanced bot mitigation or DDoS protection at scale
