BashEdge
Combines a WAF, Layer 7 DDoS protection and intrusion prevention for Linux servers.
BashEdge bundles a Web Application Firewall with over 50 maintained rules, Layer 7 DDoS protection, a server firewall and login/intrusion protection into one decision engine, so a single request is judged using context from all four layers instead of one in isolation. It installs with one command and starts in monitor mode before enforcing anything. Pricing is per server: $12/month for up to 10 hosting accounts, $23/month for unlimited.
What holds up
- +One install covers WAF, Layer 7 DDoS, server firewall and intrusion prevention instead of four separate tools.
- +Over 50 maintained WAF rules update live, without restarting the web server.
- +Starts in monitor mode so you can watch behavior before anything blocks live traffic.
Mind the limits
- −Priced per server ($12–23/month) — cost scales with how many servers you run, not a flat fee.
- −Built for Linux servers you manage yourself, not a fit if you're on shared or managed hosting.
