Http Blacklisting

Topic: Security


In helping all those with Nuke security issues and problems with spammers, comment spammers and other such people (the ones that post adverts on forums) and those that steal email addresses, I have discovered something I felt is really usefull and would benefit the whole of the Nuke community and others running websites.

The details are to long winded to go into here, but in short it is this, When someone registers for your site, a system that checks their ip against a dns record to see if they exist on a universal http blacklist, having been caught spamming etc. with that particular ip

Check their ip against this list, create a scoring system and dependant upon the result automatically log their ip and ban it. They have no access to your site, if you use .htaccess writing or Nukesentinel and thus prevents some future problems with them.

Interested!! then read the article posted at kissoftware and include the modification hack listed in our downloads section.
