====================
Firewall Extension
====================

The Firewall extension protects your TYPO3 website against unwanted traffic,
bots, and attacks. It blocks or limits requests based on IP address, path,
headers, or other patterns, and bans clients after repeated abuse.

The extension is built on the `phirewall <https://phirewall.de/>`__ package
and adds everything you need in TYPO3: the request middleware, a backend
module for block patterns, bans and statistics, ready-made rule presets,
and dashboard widgets.

Start with :doc:`QuickStart` if you want a working firewall in five minutes.
Read :doc:`Introduction` to understand what the extension does and how it
relates to phirewall.
