pornJester · 05-14-2003, 08:46 PM

Looking into paysite security. Any comments on which of these you'd go with. My concerns include...

-Brute Force Attacks
-Password Trading
-Bandwidth Leaching

Any input on this topic would be appreciated. Thanks.

Swoit · 05-14-2003, 08:51 PM

Pennywize has all those covered, and you can try it for free.

Top product!

PJ - Pennywize is the go. We have them on our paysites. Pennywize is used on thousands of other paysites.

We've never had an issue.

Steve & the team looked after us. Great Pricing too.

Nina · 05-14-2003, 10:18 PM

I use ProxyPass and I'm very happy with it.

And their support is great.

Shoplifter · 05-14-2003, 10:23 PM

Pennywize will stop multiple users but in my experience it is not deterring brute force very well.

No matter what I set it to I can't get it to block a proxy used in a brute force attack for more than 10 minutes. If the guy has a big proxy list, or is hacking slowly they will get valid tries.

Really you want to set it to block an IP for an hour or so after 3 tries.

I have Pennywize on all my sites and still get passes hacked and posted on ultrapasswords. It stops the amateurs but not the dedicated hackers.

If anyone has got it working well please give me a hand with the settings.

Robot Control Pro

$59.95, stops brute force hacking, stops people from nosing around in any directories you have, reports (if you want it to) every time search engine robot visits you, allows you to cap bandwidth. Installed quickly and tech support is top notch.

One time price, no monthly fee, free upgrades.

Notifies you when someone tries to check for Nimbda (_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?UL=1&ACT=4&BUILD=3124&STRMVER=4&CAPREQ= 0).

FadeEP · 05-15-2003, 12:37 PM

Just got PP..have not seen it in action yet but it looks good.

We have the same problem with Pennywize.

This is getting on my nerves, REALLY bad...

I think I'm gonna install 3 of these scripts to make sure I don't ever email a customer again to say we had to change his password.

Johny Traffic · 09-15-2003, 09:05 AM

Ive used pennywize for years, the support is great too

flashfreak · 09-15-2003, 09:16 AM

I've made a php script to stop pass traders, I'm selling it for a decent price.
contact me if interrested (see sig)

myneid · 09-15-2003, 09:46 AM

if you really wanna stop brute force attacks and the like www.arces.net has an awsome hardware for it.
it acts as a firewall so that your webserver will never see those packets hence you will not be taking up any bandwith.
