BitFire Security – Firewall, WAF, Bot/Spam Blocker, Login Security

Elevate Your Web Security with Cutting-Edge AI and Machine Learning

In an era where digital threats evolve at breakneck speed, traditional security measures no longer suffice. Enter BitFire, the revolutionary WordPress firewall that harnesses the unparalleled power of Generative AI and Machine Learning. This innovative solution marks a significant leap forward, offering a bespoke security strategy tailored to each individual website.

BitFire introduces a pioneering “block by default” model, setting a new standard in proactive defense. By generating a unique allow list for each site, it ensures that only legitimate traffic gains entry. This approach blocks zero-day attacks instantly, without the need for frequent signature updates. It’s not just a firewall; it’s your website’s personalized guardian, designed to distinguish between friend and foe with unprecedented accuracy.

While traditional firewalls operate on a reactive basis, allowing all traffic except for known threats, BitFire flips the script. The old way exposes your site to the latest threats until updates catch up, a delay that can be critical. BitFire’s AI-driven model adapts in real-time, offering immediate protection against even the most cunning of digital adversaries. This means you can update and patch at your leisure, without the panic-driven updates that come with new vulnerabilities.

BitFire isn’t just a product; it’s the culmination of over two decades of frontline web security experience. Our legacy is built on the expertise of a visionary computer security architect, whose strategies have defended the digital realms of leading corporations and critical infrastructure alike. With BitFire, we’re extending this unparalleled defense to your WordPress site, providing peace of mind in an unpredictable digital landscape.

Welcome to the future of web security, where BitFire leads the charge against emerging threats with intelligence and precision. Secure your site with BitFire, and enjoy the confidence that comes from knowing you’re protected by the best.

Privacy / Monitoring / Data Collection

  1. Privacy. We take privacy very seriously. BitFire inspects all traffic going to the webserver and takes care to filter out any potentially sensitive information by replacing it with redacted. The config.ini file includes a list of common sensitive field names under the “filtered_logging” section. You can add additional fields to filter in the config file by adding a line “filtered_logging[field_name] = true” and replacing “field_name” with the name of the desired parameter to filter.

  2. BitFire includes an error handler which monitors it’s operation. In the event an error is detected only in the BitFire software; including during install, an alert can be sent to BitFire’s developer team. The development team monitors these errors in real time and includes fixes for any detected errors in each new release.

  3. Malware scanner. BitFire sends tiny 64bit hashes (signatures, or fingerprints) of every file to our hash database. For instance, index.php may hash to the number: 812612388126487. The database is many gigabytes and centrally located on our servers. BitFire uses that information to determine if a file has been modified or is a known good file and sends the results back to your site. Client hashes are never stored off your server.
