aspwaf/Walter.Web.FireWall.Geo.MaxMindv2025.9.1452

This package allows you to protect your firewall using annotations and pre-specified rules. A full getting started document is available at www.asp-waf.com in form of a PDF, compiled help and simple instructions

The bellow sample shows how you integrate and enable the firewall in your project and use MaxMind for Geography. You can get free as well as paid geo data from https://www.maxmind.com these samples assume GeoLite2-Country.mmdb and GeoLite2-City.mmdb are available in a directory called D:\MaxMind and are shared by several web applications. If no path is provided App_Data is assumed.

services.AddFireWall(FireWallTrail.License, FireWallTrail.DomainKey
    , domainName: new Uri("https://www.your-domain.com", UriKind.Absolute)
    , options =>
    {
        options.Cypher.ApplicationPassword = "123456$even";
        options.ApplicationName = "Name as used for reporting";
        options.ApplicationTag = "ITIL Tag";
        options.Rules.BlockRequest.BlockDuration.SlideExpiration = true;
        options.Rules.BlockRequest.BlockDuration.Expires = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);

}).UseGeography(new System.IO.DirectoryInfo("D:\\MaxMind"));

The firewall is fully configurable and has quite a few options that allow you to protect against fishing, scrubbing, cross-site attach and much more.

There are a ton of configuration options available using the many annotations
