RSFirewall! 2.11.14 is a Joomla security component that combines request filtering, file checks and access controls in one administration interface. It can detect common attack patterns such as SQL injection, XSS and LFI, monitor changes to Joomla files and record security events for later review. Administrators can also manage IP access rules, check file and folder permissions and use the system scanner to review the Joomla installation for security-related problems.
The active protection layer checks incoming requests for patterns associated with common web attacks. Suspicious activity can be logged and blocked according to the component configuration, providing an additional layer beyond Joomla's standard access controls.
System checks can review Joomla core files, file permissions and other installation details. This helps administrators identify unexpected changes or configuration problems that may need manual attention.
IP addresses can be added to block or allow lists, and security events are stored in logs so repeated requests can be investigated. Country-based rules are also available when geographic blocking is configured.
RSFirewall includes tools for reviewing the database and administrator area in addition to frontend request filtering. This page refers specifically to version 2.11.14, so later RSFirewall releases may contain additional features and compatibility changes.
