HackerTrapHits: 9
*****
HackerTrap is the first step towards protecting your site!The web today is a jungle of hackers and script kiddies trying to take over any servers they can. They blast your site with multiple requests for several different applications and check which get a response - then exploit known weaknesses of that application. Even if you don't run the application, the error response provides information on the webserver type and version (and that's a double whammy, because the standard error response is ugly if seen by a real user!).
With HackerTrap you specify which applications you DON'T run, and which directories a user should NEVER access. It comes preloaded with the common directories and file used by popular scripts to probe sites. When a hacker shotguns your site looking for weaknesses, it hits one and BAM, he's can't get near you! If a user makes an innocent mistake in the URL, he is not penalized and in fact, gets an attractive error page customized by you.
