Why Would I want this?:

This firewall subscription would allow you to block IPs from querying your server on the fly.
Giving you the ultimate protection against those who want to crash your server!
Note:
We will still be supplying our global firewalls free of charge.
This system is available for those limited number of attacks that get through or aren't added to our Firewall rules.
