It is very useful for protecting your web server from various attacks by blocking most of the known exploits using regular expressions and rule sets. Mod_security can detect attacks by monitoring and analyzing the HTTP traffic in real time. In this blog tutorial we will guide you through the process of installing mod_security with the OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) core rule set on a <a title=\"CentOS VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/centos-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CentOS VPS<\/a> from source. <!--more--> Log in to your your server as user &#8216;root&#8217; and make sure that all packages are up to date:<\/p>\n<pre>yum -y update<\/pre>\n<p>Before we start the installation of mod_security, we need to install the following dependencies first<\/p>\n<pre>yum install gcc make httpd-devel libxml2 pcre-devel libxml2-devel curl-devel git<\/pre>\n<p>Download the mod_security source code from their official website to your server<\/p>\n<pre>cd \/opt\/\r\nwget https:\/\/www.modsecurity.org\/tarball\/2.9.1\/modsecurity-2.9.1.tar.gz<\/pre>\n<p>Extract the downloaded archive and change the current working directory to the newly extracted directory<\/p>\n<pre>tar xzfv modsecurity-2.9.1.tar.gz \r\ncd modsecurity-2.9.1<\/pre>\n<p>Now, lets configure, compile and install mod_security from the source code<\/p>\n<pre>.\/configure\r\nmake\r\nmake install<\/pre>\n<p>Copy the default mod_security configuration and the <em>unicode.mapping<\/em> file to the necessary Apache directory<\/p>\n<pre>cp modsecurity.conf-recommended \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/modsecurity.conf\r\ncp unicode.mapping \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/<\/pre>\n<p>With this step, mod_security is installed on your server. Now we need to configure the Apache web server. Open the web server configuration file and add the following line<\/p>\n<pre>nano \/etc\/httpd\/conf\/httpd.conf\r\nLoadModule security2_module modules\/mod_security2.so\r\nLoadModule unique_id_module modules\/mod_unique_id.so<\/pre>\n<p>Save the changes and restart Apache<\/p>\n<pre>\/etc\/init.d\/httpd restart<\/pre>\n<p>Download and configure OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) core rule set for a base configuration<\/p>\n<pre>cd \/etc\/httpd\r\ngit clone https:\/\/github.com\/SpiderLabs\/owasp-modsecurity-crs.git\r\nmv owasp-modsecurity-crs modsecurity-crs\r\ncd modsecurity-crs\r\ncp modsecurity_crs_10_setup.conf.example modsecurity_crs_10_config.conf<\/pre>\n<p>Open the Apache configuration file again, and add the following lines at the end of the flie<\/p>\n<pre>    Include modsecurity-crs\/modsecurity_crs_10_config.conf\r\n    Include modsecurity-crs\/base_rules\/*.conf\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Save the file and restart the web server again<\/p>\n<pre>\/etc\/init.d\/httpd restart<\/pre>\n<p>That&#8217;s all. You have mod_security with the OWASP core rule set installed on your CentOS VPS. Of course you don\u2019t have to do any of this if you use one of our <a title=\"Linux VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Linux VPS hosting <\/a>services, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to install Mod_security for you.
