- wil421 4y agoThe Unifi Dream Machine Special Edition is what I use. I do not have any degradation with my gigabit internet unlike past Unifi products I have owned. Snort is something I have looked at installing and playing with on a PFSense box. https://www.snort.org https://www.snort.org
- achillean 4y agoIf the bot is running from a cloud instance then you can fairly easily block it using something like Zeek. For example: https://help.shodan.io/zeek-integration/4-blocking https://help.shodan.io/zeek-integration/4-blocking You could also check if the remote IP has any open ports (ex. SSH) and block based on that as most regular visitors probably won't be exposing those types of services to the Internet.
