Following my post earlier this week I made a small write-up, How @Crowd_Security mitigated attacks following issuing certificates from @letsencrypt and how it all unfolded. #CyberSecurity#IDS#IPS

Missed our session at @DrupalConEur ? Or maybe you’d like a quick refresher? 🎥
You can now watch the full replay right here 👇
Discover how the Drupal Association and CrowdSec have joined forces to deliver community-powered protection directly at the CMS layer.
Hosted by our Head of Professional Services, @iiAmLoz , this talk dives into how open-source collaboration enables site maintainers, developers, and security enthusiasts to strengthen the open web, together.

Great! now we set a base configuration to always deny all dotfile access so even if a developer accidentally places a file then this will reject any connection.
Use this in combination with CrowdSec to automatically ban IP addresses that violate this access control.
So I see the comments like:
"Get them to download a 10gb file"
"Let the connection hang so they waste their time"
This is all good if you don't pay for egress or compute time on your web application.
However, lets take a practical approach to hardening your web server 🧵
To use this security.conf you should import the config within your TLS level vhost, as typically your standard http should be a redirect to the TLS level.

If you might send mail later (e.g., via a newsletter service), remove/adjust these before sending.
You don’t need an MX at all, but the Null MX makes the “no mail here” intent explicit for receivers that honor it.
I read through comments and if true then it because the domain did not explicitly inform that its not used for mail delivery.
it is important even if you know you don't send emails to add a explicit DNS records for it 🧵
T3 Chat is currently banned in multiple countries because some malicious hater spam-reported our domain to various threat data providers.
I understand that people are upset with me right now, but going after my business and team is unacceptable.

@Crowd_Security
Some government representatives are now floating the idea of banning VPNs.
This raises serious concerns—not just about technical understanding, but about how far they’re willing to go to enforce content restrictions.
but I guess think of the children?
So the #OnlineSafetyAct is facing challenges. 🧵
It appears the technical implementation details—like geolocation restrictions—were underestimated, as these can be bypassed easily.
This could include grouping child devices into profiles with DNS filtering and safe search enabled.
Of course, once devices leave the home network, different challenges arise—but that’s where education and device-level controls can help.
