OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set (CRS)

The 1st Line of Defense Against Web Application Attacks

The OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set (CRS) is a set of generic attack detection rules for use with ModSecurity or compatible web application firewalls. The CRS aims to protect web applications from a wide range of attacks, including the OWASP Top Ten, with a minimum of false alerts. The CRS provides protection against many common attack categories, including SQL Injection, Cross Site Scripting, Locale File Inclusion, etc.

The offical website of the project can be found at https://coreruleset.org.

Getting Started / Tutorials

The following tutorials will get you started with ModSecurity and the CRS v3.

These tutorials are part of a big series of Apache / ModSecurity guides published by netnea. They are written by Christian Folini.

More Information about the rule set is available at the official website, https://coreruleset.org.
