CrowdSec Product Details

CrowdSec is an open-source security stack that detects aggressive behaviors and prevents them from accessing your systems. Its user-friendly design and ease of integration into your current security infrastructure offer a low technical entry barrier and a high-security gain. Once an unwanted behavior is detected, it is automatically blocked. The aggressive IP, scenario triggered and the timestamp is sent for curation, to avoid poisoning & false positives. If verified, this IP is then redistributed to all CrowdSec users running the same scenario. By sharing the threat they faced, all users are protecting each other.

Product Description

CrowdSec is a collaborative, free and open source security automation platform relying on both IP behavior analysis and IP reputation.

Used in 90 countries across 6 continents, the solution builds a real-time IP reputation database that keeps growing every day and benefits all community members who have each other's backs while forming a global defense shield.

"Modern take on blocking bad actors"

5/5

What do you like best about CrowdSec?

Crowdsec makes it easy to block rogue IP addresses automatically based on a crowd-sourced database verus just blocking IPs that you detect like other solutions such as fail2ban. The advantage is the database is refreshed on current known rogue actor IPs. Crowdsec is easy to configure, and in my situation, it was easy to drop into my current setup.

I haven't ran into an downsides to using Crowdsec. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
