Integration of CSF and LFD

We kindly request the integration of CSF (ConfigServer Security & Firewall) along with LFD (Login Failure Daemon) into the ISPmanager control panel. CSF+LFD is a widely recognized and powerful security suite that provides comprehensive firewall management and real-time intrusion detection, greatly improving server protection against brute-force attacks, port scans, and other unauthorized access attempts.

Key Benefits of Integrating CSF + LFD:

Enhanced Security: CSF offers a robust, configurable firewall that effectively filters network traffic and protects against a wide range of attacks.

Real-Time Intrusion Detection: LFD monitors login attempts and suspicious activity, automatically blocking IP addresses that show malicious behavior.

Detailed IP and Rule Management: Administrators can easily view, add, or remove banned IPs and customize firewall rules, allowing precise control over server access.

Improved Monitoring and Alerts: LFD sends timely notifications about security events, helping maintain server integrity proactively.

Proven Reliability: CSF+LFD is used by many leading hosting control panels, including cPanel, DirectAdmin, and Webmin, demonstrating its effectiveness and compatibility.

To maximize usability, it would be ideal to allow full CSF management directly from the ISPmanager interface. This includes viewing and editing firewall rules, monitoring banned IP addresses, and enabling/disabling specific protections without the need to access the server shell.

By integrating CSF and LFD into ISPmanager, the panel would provide users with an industry-standard security layer, enhancing overall server safety and user confidence.
