This package integrates CrowdSec in pfSense. It is not stable yet, but you are free to test from the Releases page.
It provides a basic UI with settings to configure the Security Engine and the Firewall Remediation Component (bouncer).
Three types of configuration are supported:
-
Small: remediation only. Use this to protect a set of existing servers already running CrowdSec. The remediation component feeds the Packet Filter with the blocklists received by the main CrowdSec instance (*).
-
Medium: like Small but can also detect attacks by parsing logs in the pfSense machine. Attack data is sent to the CrowdSec instance for analysis and possibly sharing.
-
Large: deploy a fully autonomous CrowdSec Security Engine on the pfSense machine and allow other servers to connect to it. Requires a persistent /var directory (no RAM disk) and a slightly larger pfSense machine, depending on the amount of data to be processed.
(*) If you are already using a Blocklist Mirror, this replaces it while being faster and not requiring pfBlockerNG.
