Tech Ravings

So far in the past month I have had two database injections. I don’t know how they are getting in and since I am on a shared server I don’t have access to the raw apache logs to figure this out. Security being very important to me I had to do something on the server that would allow tracking or even setting up a complete firewall custom taliored for me.

I found Firewall Script that can be used specifically to safe gaurd my personal site with dis-regard to all the others. I have not downloaded it yet but from the features it looks to be exactly what I was looking for. Protection from sql injection, XSS attacks, even DDOS protection. Not that this blog would really ever need that I do run other sites that would really require it if the server can’t handle it.

I wanted to get this news out as soon as possible because several of us Wordpress and site owners are experiencing a rise in intrusion attempts. I’m gonna give it a try as soon as possible and I hope that this may help you as well.
