rack attack

We have hosted the application rack attack in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about rack attack:

Protect your Rails and Rack apps from bad clients. Rack: : Attack lets you easily decide when to allow, block and throttle based on properties of the request. Rack middleware for blocking & throttling abusive requests. Tackling each curious anomaly that threatens your site�s reliability saps developer productivity and happiness. Rack: : Attack lets you throttle abusive requests with just a few lines of code. For the security of our users, we have a stricter throttle for login attempts. This makes it very time consuming for attackers to guess users� passwords. We also use the IPCat ruby library to detect requests from well-known datacenters. Rack: : Attack can also track requests without blocking them. We rely on Rack: : Attack to let developers quickly track and throttle requests. It helps keep our site reliable, so we can spend more energy building better features. We�re glad to make it publicly available to the open-source community.

Features:

• Limit the number of requests that can be made per IP address
• Rack: : Attack can also track requests without blocking them
• Name your custom blocklist and make your ruby-block argument return a truthy value if you want the request to be blocked
• Block all requests from misbehaving clients
• Throttle state is stored in a configurable cache
• Name your custom throttle

Programming Language: Ruby.
