Greetings!

I've just discovered NPM and it's brilliant, exactly what I need!
However, I'd like to add a WAF to the reverse proxy, does anyone have experience with that? for example mod_security?

Regards

Do you know this funtion?
I don't know that is Modsec or not.

@wisoez Looking at the code for that function , it looks like it's just some rudimentary ngnix config rules. Useful, but doesn't offer the same level of protection as modsec.

Does it currently support WAF?
