If you have the money to spend, I would recommend using a Next
Generation Firewall.  Palo Alto makes a good product.

If you are looking for something open source, I would try a web
application firewall like ModSecurity.  You can download it at

layer 7 - whats best to protect one's server from any of the layers being
