About mod_security
------------------
Mod_security is an Apache module whose purpose is to protect
vulnerable applications and reject human or automated attacks.
It is an open source intrusion detection and prevention system
for Apache. In addition to request filtering, it also creates Web
application audit logs. Requests are filtered using regular
expressions. Some of the things possible are:

  * Apply filters against any part of the request (URI,
    headers, either GET or POST)
  * Apply filters against individual parameters
  * Reject SQL injection attacks
  * Reject Cross site scripting attacks

With few general rules mod_security can protect from both
known and unknown vulnerabilities.

Changes (v1.5)
--------------

  * Apache 2.x compatibility

  * Added SecFilterInheritance

  * Added SecFilterByteRange

  * Added SecFilterCheckURLEncoding

  * A few bug fixes

  * New web site @ www.modsecurity.org

  * Comprehensive manual
