So the goal for 7G is zero false positives. 7G integrates the best features of all previous nG Firewalls and builds upon them. Fortunately for us, 7G is the seventh generation of a firewall/blacklist that comprises over a decade of research, testing, and development. What’s the downside? Same as with any firewall, potential false positives. You free up all those server resources for the good traffic. then you add nG Firewall and watch the noise drop to zero. I’ve seen many times sites just getting hammered with bad traffic.

So bad requests are blocked without having to load up PHP, MySQL, and everything else. It gives your site a super strong layer of protection at the server level. 7G helps with this by protecting your site against many types of bad requests and attacks. Whether it’s just nuisance traffic like spam, or serious in-your-face DDoS attack, now is the time to strengthen site security and lock things down.

Two unwritten laws of the Web: 1) Nothing is 100% secure, and 2) All websites are under pretty much 24/7 constant attack. Update! 7G has been forked by Tonkünstler-on-the-Bund to use SetEnvIf instead of mod_rewrite.
