A lot of websites are hacked these days, so it’s highly important that administrators do the best they can to protect their sites against malicious attacks. PHP developers can secure their sites by using NinjaFirewall, a PHP script developed by NinTechNet.

NinjaFirewall is compatible with most popular e-commerce platforms and content management systems, including PrestaShop, X-Cart, osCommerce, Virtuemart, WordPress, Drupal and Joomla. However, it can also be used as a stand-alone.

The firewall can protect websites against code execution attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), brute-force attacks, SQL Injections, Local File Inclusions, Remote File Inclusions, and shell scripts.

It’s easy to install, it’s compatible with most shared hosting providers, and the admin panel allows users to easily configure it.

The firewall activity logging functionality is excellent for those who want to learn what kind of threats their websites are facing.
